# Coalescing Strategies #
# Coalescing multiples messages turns out to significantly boost message processing throughput (think doubling or more).
# On bare metal, the floor for packet processing throughput is high enough that many applications won’t notice, but in
# On bare metal, the floor for packet processing throughput is high enough that many applications won't notice, but in

# surprisingly low compared to the throughput of task processing that is possible inside a VM. It's not that bare metal
# doesn't benefit from coalescing messages, it's that the number of packets a bare metal network interface can process
# is sufficient for many applications such that no load starvation is experienced even without coalescing.
# There are other benefits to coalescing network messages that are harder to isolate with a simple metric like messages
# per second. By coalescing multiple tasks together, a network thread can process multiple messages for the cost of one
