    Ha! This is probably the first serious problem I ever tackled with an open source contribution! The year was 2002, the 2.4 Linux kernel had just been released and I was making money on the side building software monitoring a few thousand mostly Solaris hosts for a large German car manufacturer. Everything was built in parallel ksh code, “deployed” to Sun E10Ks with Solaris 8, mostly kicked off by cron and keeping total script runtime down to avoid process buildup and delay was critical. The biggest offender: long timeouts for host/port combinations that would sporadically not be available.

    Eventually, I grabbed W. Richard Stevens’ UNIX network programming book and created tcping [0]. FreeBSD, NetBSD, a series of Linux distros picked it up at the time and it was steady decline from there… good times!
