LibURL and TSNet in LC Indy

[Charles Warwick]

Hi Tom,

If you want to stress test an API using the tsNet library, try adding a:

tsNetLibUrlReuseConnection false

Before issuing the loadUrl commands to see if that makes any difference.

Also note that with tsNet, multiple load URL commands can occur at the same time against a single server, where as without tsNet, I think that  libUrl will wait for one to complete before sending the next one.

So it is also possible that you are hitting the remote server harder when you are using tsNet than with the standard libUrl.

Regards,

Charles
