Yes - for ra_neon, the request count does matter...a lot. =) FWIW, I found some silliness in serf about how it gathers data to be put on to the socket - being more efficient at the socket level by using iovec's more should help reduce socket writes tremendously and should hopefully bring ra_serf inline with ra_neon over HTTPS. -- justin
