Thorben <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: The problem exists even if the server part is replaced by a server written in C. I only wrote up the dummy server in python to be able to provide a testcase.
The C server works with reasonable speed when connected to a client written in perl by the way. My employer is quite disappointed with Python's performance... (He provided the profiler data for the Mac by the way) I almost wish that I did something wrong, but this does not seem to be the case. Nevertheless, I will try out your suggestion.
