    Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you but this tool expressly has a select and move tool.

    Whatever your views might be on TED talks, this article is incredibly well written and thoughtful. Great read.

    If memory serves me, nginx succeeded by relying on epoll primitives for handling many connections rather than spinning up a thread per request by default like apache did at the tim…
