It is my understanding that using select() with a large FD_SET is not very scalable. As a result, all the network servers I've written have used asynchronous IO and completion ports (on Windows obviously).

What mechanism does ICE use to allow scalability to thousands of simultaneous network connections? I can't imagine it uses a thread-per-connection model, and using grep I can't find any evidence of completion ports.

Thanks,
