To use this feature, make sure you have the latest possible + version of Libevent, and run autoconf with the --enable-bufferevents + flag. Using this feature will make our networking code more flexible, + lets us stack layers on each other, and let us use more efficient + zero-copy transports where available. + - As an experimental feature, when using the "bufferevents" buffered + IO backend, Tor can try to use Windows's IOCP networking API. This + is off by default. To turn it on, add "DisableIOCP 0" to your torrc. + |
