AF_UNIX和127.0.0.1(AF_INET)回环地址写数据速度对比

在linux下，存在着这样的情况，本地的进程间通信，并且其中一个是服务端，另外的都是客户端。
服务端通过绑定端口，客户端往127.0.0.1的对应端口发送，即可办到，不过这样会浪费一个端口，同时也容易造成安全隐患。

今天发现linux服务端创建socket的时候，协议族用AF_UNIX即可，AF_LOCAL和AF_UNIX的值是一样的。

而AF_UNIX和127.0.0.1回环地址相比，具有哪些好处呢。本人读了下面博客：
Unix domain socket 简介

其中里面讲到UNIX domain socket 用于 IPC 更有效率：不需要经过网络协议栈，不需要打包拆包、计算校验和、维护序号和应答等。本人想当然认为AF_UNIX速度比127.0.0.1更快，为此鄙人进行了实验。

找一个比较大的文件，超过1G大小，然后
1。用AF_UNIX写客户端和服务端，由客户端读取文件，发送给AF_UNIX服务端，然后服务端写文件，看看用AF_UNIX传递一个文件需要多久。
2. 用127.0.0.1写客户端和服务端，由客户端读取文件，发送给127.0.0.1服务端，然后服务端写文件，看看用127.0.0.1传递一个文件需要多久。

废话不多说，直接上代码，先上AF_UNIX的：

本人的缓冲区大小分为3种情况(文件大小为1.15G)，上图代码片段缓冲区大小为1000字节：
缓冲区大小100字节：AF_UNIX传递完文件费时25秒，127.0.0.1传递完文件费时33秒
缓冲区大小1000字节：AF_UNIX传递完文件费时8秒，127.0.0.1传递完文件费时7秒
缓冲区大小10000字节：AF_UNIX传递完文件费时5秒，127.0.0.1传递完文件费时4秒
