I think I tell the reason even without having seen the code. Since beta-1 'expect: 100-continue' handshake is off per default, that can make a huge difference in terms of performance with POST requests that require authentication.
Just do the following httppost.setUseExpectHeader(true); http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/commons/httpclient/methods/ExpectContinueMethod.html Alternatively you could use preemptive authentication. I hope this helps Cheers Oleg On Sat, 2003-07-26 at 05:35, Todd Wolff wrote: > Hi, > > After upgrading from 2.0-alpha3 to 2.0-beta2, instead of roughly 10 > requests per second, I am averaging only 3 requests per second.
