“BREAKING NEWS:
After 10 years, asynchronous TCP support patch is now merged into #ReactOS. You can expect to see substantial performance improvements in networking apps (e.g. browsers, FTP clients, downloaders)!!!”

After several pull requests going through various reworks, this code<\/a> was merged this afternoon for asynchronous connection support. This should deliver on some fairly broad network performance improvements — “substantial” as the developers sum it up — with the latest ReactOS development state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ReactOS as the long-in-development “open-source Windows” project has been on quite a roll recently.
