Sorry, what's brawndo? (Searching only gives me movie results?)

We started out discussing AF_UNIX vs. AF_INET6. If you can conceptually use something faster than sockets that's great, but if you're down to a socket, unix domain will generally beat inet domain...

You can do some pretty crazy stuff with pipes, if you want to do better than unix sockets.
