Threaded TCP Socket Server

• Extended existing python TCP Server to support the functionality of Threads.

• Base python TCP Server runs on Single Thread.

• Setup:

  • Clone the repository
  • Code runs with python3
  • python3 Threaded_TCP_Server.py
  • Threads can be controlled by "no_of_socket_threads" parameter and is defined in main block.

• TO DOs:

  • Code starts with threads defined, so even if its not serving any request, as soon as threads are spawned its going to consume the constant amount of memory.
  • Solution of the problem is implementing the Thread Executor Pool of python.
  • But the problem with Thread Executor Pool, is it doesn't grows and shrinks Dynamically.
  • Thread Executor Pools problem of Dynamic Shrinking and Scaling can also be solved by implementing side car thread, which kills the spawned ideal threads.
