Does anyone know of something more real-time? ‹peter On 4/15/17, 10:48 AM, "1600...@gmail.com on behalf of Douglas McCarroll" <1600...@gmail.com on behalf of list.apache-flex....@brightworks.com> wrote: >IIRC, James Ward's benchmarking app... > >https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.james >ward.com%2F2007%2F04%2F30%2Fajax-and-flex-data-loading-benchmarks%2F&data= >02%7C01%7C%7C685b06dde1ce4c6a215f08d484546721%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178 >decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636278945430535468&sdata=jAuct%2B8oS4FnFAX9WC3xFvxZFpGCLG >UvWvKgzJMPe2s%3D&reserved=0 > >... used US Census data. > >Sadly, the benchmark app doesn't seem to work any more, but I found this >via google: > >https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.censu >s.gov%2Fdata%2Fdevelopers%2Fdata-sets.html&data=02%7C01%7C%7C685b06dde1ce4 >c6a215f08d484546721%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636278945 >430535468&sdata=S1AMDnRVAKtdy0QGfKv24JZ%2FEj5CghHZvx991%2Ff1UxE%3D&reserve >d=0 > >Douglas > >On Sat, Apr 15, 2017 at 9:30 AM, Christofer Dutz ><christofer.d...@c-ware.de> >wrote: > >> We should ask Apache Infra Š they have several streams of publically >> available data.
