As the guys claim, NetCom7 is the fastest possible implementation of socket communications, which can handle as many as 2000 requests per second. After looking through the sources, I discovered that the library utilizes the blocking socket model 😲

​​Check out one interesting Delphi Firemonkey tool.

🧐 It allows you to build Delphi and C++Builder projects concurrently in parallel. The utility uses the TDirectory.GetFiles function to pull in all of the DPROJ and CBPROJ files recursively from a directory. After that, it uses TTask, MSBuild, and an ExecAndWait function to run multiple compiles of the different projects at the same time. You can compile Windows, Android, OCX, and other projects simultaneously.

The good guys from FMX Express has published the sources on GitHub 🔥
