And then re-running the tests from the same python prompt that was open just before I wrote that email and I now have the 100ms delay back again... yet not still in ab. Quitting and starting a new python process and I still have the delay.
I guess this is obvious advice, but then again we all need the obvious stated from time to time: Since it seems to be tricky maybe a more mechanical approach would help -- reproduce it with a script that just uses module socket, then reproduce it with the equivalent C program if necessary? Then if it's still not apparent, to keep zeroing in on what is different between ab and your script, you can go in the other direction, simplifying the ab code drastically, until your two programs are identical apart from the one thing that makes the Python code slower (hopefully you'll spot the problem before that happens ;-).
