From: Sean Warburton Date: 2010-03-22T03:19:28+09:00 Subject: Speeding up TCP I have a script that opens a TCP socket and then sends an XML request using SSL over the socket, it then receives an answer back from the server. The whole send and receive is taking between 160 and 175 milliseconds total (not including opening the socket) but I know others using PHP and Perl have this down to around 130 milliseconds and I wonder if Ruby has any tricks up its sleeve that would speed thing up a little. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
