(Claude Elwood Shannon)
kcp-go is a Production-Grade Reliable-UDP library for golang.
It provides fast, ordered and error-checked delivery of streams over UDP packets, has been well tested with opensource project kcptun. Millions of devices(from low-end MIPS routers to high-end servers) are running with kcp-go at present, including applications like online games, live broadcasting, file synchronization and network acceleration.
- Optimized for Realtime Multiplayer Games, Audio/Video Streaming.
- Compatible with skywind3000's C version with language specific optimizations.
- Cache friendly and Memory optimized design in golang.
- Compatible with net.Conn and net.Listener, easy to use.
- FEC(Forward Error Correction) Support with Reed-Solomon Codes
- Packet level encryption support with AES, TEA, 3DES, Blowfish, Cast5, Salsa20, etc. in CFB mode.
- O(1) goroutines created for the entire server application, minimized goroutine context switch.
Control messages like SYN/FIN/RST in TCP are not defined in KCP, you need some keepalive/heartbeat mechanism in the application-level. A real world example is to use some multiplexing protocol over session, such as smux(with embeded keepalive mechanism), see kcptun for example.
For complete documentation, see the associated Godoc.

Q: I'm running > 3000 connections on my server. the CPU utilization is high.
A: A standalone agent or gate server for kcp-go is suggested, not only for CPU utilization, but also important to the precision of RTT measurements which indirectly affects retransmission. By increasing update interval with SetNoDelay like conn.SetNoDelay(1, 40, 1, 1) will dramatically reduce system load.
