seems recently uWebsockets is popular because of performance.
is it possible to switch use uWebsockets? , will it be better?
maybe a variation of this patch https://gist.github.com/danielstjules/71ade40ce7c145c857a6
uWebsockets is a C++ library. This makes installing the package a lot more complicated and breaks a lot of users in my experience. You would also needs bindings to Node.js, which will definitely result in a loss of performance. I'm not sure the gain would be worth the effort and complexity that comes with a C++ package.
It definitely shouldn't be closed. I've switched to engine.io with uWS in my stress test app, and it performed over 3 times bettter. It hasn't to be default engine (uws) it can be an option like in engine.io
I'm not interested in adding uWS as an option. If you want it, feel free to fork and implement.
