How about using a different thread/process for the task that needs to be done regularly? Then you will be able to execute the tasks regularly no matter what happens in libcurl.

Easier said than done. I'm still supporting very old systems (AmigaOS) where writing to hard disk can take much longer than it takes for new data to come in from the sockets. Thus, with the current implementation curl_multi_perform() will loop 100 times before finally returning control to the user. On vintage systems like 68k AmigaOS this can take ages before control is returned so the current implementation is not very convenient for my specific purpose. IMHO there should be an option to force it to return in user-defined specific intervals, like every second or so... -- Best regards, Andreas Falkenhahn mailto:andr...@falkenhahn.com ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: https://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: https://curl.se/mail/etiquette.html
