Great stuff, thanks for that, but what keeps me from looking much deeper into this is, the missing platform status for a full multi-platform support. Do you have a list or table, showing which parts can be used under FMX ( iOS, Android, Windows 32/64, Macos, Linux ) and which one only under VCL ( Windows 62/64 ) ? I understand that it isn't made for mobile in the first place, but your library is so overwhelming full of goodies and tools, it would be great to get a clear picture for each single piece.

IOCP may have some benefits with threaded applications, but those are very rare with ICS. I did some FTP testing a few years ago, ICS was opening over 100 non-SSL connections each second, slower with SSL due to all the negotiation that goes on and IOCP would be irrelevant there. I thought IOCP with TCP was mainly for speeding up transmission, sending larger blocks or files or something. But ICS is quite fast already, I transfer files using ICS FTP between my two public hosted servers in different data centres each night, and file transfer is usually 300 to 400 Mbit/s, less than the gig ethernet port speed, but respectable for the public internet, via routers and firewalls.

Why would you need IOCP with ICS? Angus

I think so. It's quite frustrating that this often comes down to the wire like this. I don't have any objection to maintaining a subscription to get support for Android API level updates, but it is beyond frustrating that they don't come in a timely manner. API 33 had its release one year ago. Even if we extend the deadline to November, there's hardly going to be enough time to properly test a new API level build when we can finally get Delphi 12 without a beta NDA.

Did you know, if you write SQL in upper case, the server processes it faster!?

WHAT? I DON'T UNDERSTAND YOU. SPEAK LOUDER! I'M A BIT DUMB SO YOU'LL HAVE TO SPEAK REALLY, REALLY SLOW - AND LOUD.
