Oh - and yes, if that is the 'unix' way, then yes, it's unacceptable. The socket CANNOT be torn down after each and every single command. Once the client is connected to the socket, the client can send to the tune of hundreds of commands per second. Tearing down and then re-establishing a TCP session each time, will be just as devastating (if not more) to performance as dealing with requests synchronously. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
