KryoNet: very fast and easy to use network library

I’ve been experimenting a bit with this library and it’s a relief: I don’t have to maintain my own (crappy) one within ZenithMUD.

Easy to use, documented and very efficient, according to benchmarks I’ve found around. One can use the start() method that runs the library in a Thread and takes care of getting data from the connected clients and running user-defined actions on them, or just call the update() function in your own game loop (if you are more of a control freak :))

A good starting point, besides the README, is this Chat client-server example the author has provided.

Good job!
