I am involved in a venture that will port some communications, parsing, data handling functionality from Win32 to Linux and both will be supported. The problem domain is very sensitive to throughput and performance.
I have very little experience with performance characteristics of boost and ACE. Specifically we want to understand which library provides the best performance for threading.
Can anyone provide some data -- documented or word-of-mouth or perhaps some links -- about the relative performance between the two?
EDIT
Thanks all. Confirmed our initial thoughts - we'll most likely choose boost for system level cross-platform stuff.
