My favourite bits of the project; Elasticsearch ZMQ Golang & Haskell Unbound DNS And a bit of old Python glue to hold everything together. It's funny how long things can last when you think you would have outgrown them pretty quickly. A tiny round robin domain server that maxes out at around 60k domains per second on just a single core to distributed spider bots though is just about easy with Python + ZMQ. Plenty to keep a swarm of far more complex and well engineered Haskell crawlers humming away and throwing the results to Golang indexers to push into the Elasticsearch core for ...
