proj/gentoo: Initial commit
This commit represents a new era for Gentoo: Storing the gentoo-x86 tree in Git, as converted from CVS. This commit is the start of the NEW history. Any historical data is intended to be grafted onto this point. Creation process: 1. Take final CVS checkout snapshot 2. Remove ALL ChangeLog* files 3. Transform all Manifests to thin 4. Remove empty Manifests 5. Convert all stale $Header$/$Id$ CVS keywords to non-expanded Git $Id$ 5.1. Do not touch files with -kb/-ko keyword flags. Signed-off-by: Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> X-Thanks: Alec Warner <antarus@gentoo.org> - did the GSoC 2006 migration tests X-Thanks: Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> - infra guy, herding this project X-Thanks: Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy <pclouds@gentoo.org> - Former Gentoo developer, wrote Git features for the migration X-Thanks: Brian Harring <ferringb@gentoo.org> - wrote much python to improve cvs2svn X-Thanks: Rich Freeman <rich0@gentoo.org> - validation scripts X-Thanks: Patrick Lauer <patrick@gentoo.org> - Gentoo dev, running new 2014 work in migration X-Thanks: Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> - scripts, QA, nagging X-Thanks: All of other Gentoo developers - many ideas and lots of paint on the bikeshed

+ <longdescription>
+HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable solution offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications. It is particularly suited for web sites crawling under very high loads while needing persistence or Layer7 processing. Supporting tens of thousands of connections is clearly realistic with todays hardware. Its mode of operation makes its integration into existing architectures very easy and riskless, while still offering the possibility not to expose fragile web servers to the Net.
+
+It can:
+ - route HTTP requests depending on statically assigned cookies
+ - spread the load among several servers while assuring server persistence through the use of HTTP cookies
+ - switch to backup servers in the event a main one fails
+ - accept connections to special ports dedicated to service monitoring
+ - stop accepting connections without breaking existing ones
+ - add/modify/delete HTTP headers both ways
+ - block requests matching a particular pattern
+Its event-driven architecture allows it to easily handle thousands of simultaneous connections on hundreds of instances without risking the system's stability.
