The server is always waiting for data from the clients with an async_read_until
Can't you re-engineer the system to wait for an incoming connection with boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor. AFAIK that way you should only need the incoming buffers when a connection is active (there being no connection the rest of the time).
Hi Patrick, I'm using a boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor now to accept the connections. The problem is once the connections are accepted and I start waiting for data on them, several large buffers are allocated for each connection. I was hoping somebody might have a suggestion for working around this, or could let me know if they can think of any problems with making the various buffers smaller. Thanks! ----Scott.
