A running example of the code from:

• http://marcio.io/2015/07/handling-1-million-requests-per-minute-with-golang
• http://nesv.github.io/golang/2014/02/25/worker-queues-in-go.html

This gist creates a working example from blog post, and a alternate example using simple worker pool.

TLDR: if you want simple and controlled concurrency use a worker pool.

This gist assumes:

• you have a local git repo
• with an online remote repository (github / bitbucket etc)
• and a cloud server (Rackspace cloud / Amazon EC2 etc)
  • your (PHP) scripts are served from /var/www/html/
  • your webpages are executed by apache
• apache's home directory is /var/www/
