Scalability of socket.io 1.0 in Node.js cluster

[cleancoderocker]

How scalable will socket.io 1.0 be when used in a Node.js cluster? In the previous versions (<= 0.9.16) there is the concept of stores (including a Redis store for synchronizing socket connection data between Node.js workers / nodes within a cluster). Does this concept exist in the new version as well? I've read that there are some problems / concerns about this approach (see https://medium.com/p/2c8ad1153332 or http://www.farennikov.com/2013/06/scaling-socket-io-with-node-js-cluster/). Can you give an overview of the current status?
Thanks in advance

I also would like to know about this.

@cleancoderocker currently not using cluster myself, but should be easy to implement.
I would use something like https://github.com/indutny/sticky-session and the new redis adapter (https://github.com/automattic/socket.io-redis).

For a scalable multi-node example check out: https://github.com/guille/weplay

@guille thanks, I will have a look at those
