hi, I wanted to know why is MSG_PEEK used in the recv() call in mmap code and not recvfrom() with MSG_TRUNC flag. The reason i am asking is .. because I see my code takes a lot of CPU which is due to more looping, I suppose. The flag description for MSG_PEEK shows it doesn't discard the bytes even after reading from the queue. Can someone please explain. I would like to use recvfrom with MSG_TRUNC .. is that fine ? -Abhinav
