Hi, Currently I have a process listening and processing a multicast data stream. I'm thinking about seperate it into two processes, one listening, one processing, both will subscribe to the multicast traffic. my question is, will this lower the efficiency because now there are two listener to the multicast stream?
A:
You are doing more work so by definition it is going to be less efficient. The better question is whether it really matters, and the answer is probably not.
