| 4 | NAME | |
| 5 | ---- | |
| 6 | psendfile - Persistent static file handler for ashd(7) | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | SYNOPSIS | |
| 9 | -------- | |
| 10 | *psendfile* [*-h*] | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 13 | ----------- | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | *psendfile* is a variant of *sendfile*(1) that runs as a persistent | |
| 16 | handler. Except those actions of *sendfile* explicitly triggered by | |
| 17 | command-line options, *psendfile* does the exact same things as | |
| 18 | *sendfile*, the only difference being that it runs persistently and | |
| 19 | handles all requests in the same process, instead of spawning a | |
| 20 | process per request. In doing so, it uses more persistent resources in | |
| 21 | order to use less resources per request. As such, *psendfile* is more | |
| 22 | suitable for a system under heavier load, while *sendfile* is more | |
| 23 | suitable for a system under light load. | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | Accordingly, *psendfile* is a persistent handler, as defined in | |
| 26 | *ashd*(7). See the *sendfile*(1) manpage for all the details of it | |
| 27 | operations, as it mirrors that program exactly except in the special | |
| 28 | options it accepts. | |
