The API has been designed to be fast enough to support very large scale DHCP servers for millions of customers. Formal performance tests are planned. However, preliminary tests show that the API is able to handle more than 10.000 req/s on a simple Laptop (Pentium-M 1.5GHz) with 512MB memory. My original API was implemented in PERL, but I decided to switch to Java to broaden the potential developers audience. Porting the API from PERL to Java showed a ~10x performance boost with additionnal support for multi-threading.
