How do posts like this end up at #2 on the front page with just one comment? Websocketd doesn't strike me as an particularly popular or well known tool.

I think the velocity of the votes and the unique-ness of their geography matters a lot more than comments or discussions.

I'd be interested to know if anybody has used this in production. I've used Websocketd for quick and dirty prototyping and making things like in-browser monitoring tools and it was very fast to setup, but a full-fledged library like Gorilla or uWebsockets seems more practical for real-world applications with thousands or more simultaneous users.

The compiled Linux x86_64 binary is 7 megabytes. All of System V combined was not that big.
