Our objective is: provide Thesaurus NAL and Thesagro terms for > the clients who are involved with Agricultural information in Brazil. > > The access of the web service had a high performance when only ONE client > was using it. However, We had problems when we had more than only one client > at the same time using the web service. For ONE client the time for request > was 20 ms, but for FIVE clients it was 10 s and for 50 clients it was 40 s.
> We are really worried about the performance for more than one client > because we have been working on this web service for more than ONE YEAR. We > need to solve this problem urgently to try to put the web service in > production. > > We are using the Restlet 1 and Simple conector. The clients aplications > request the Web Service with AJAX to autocomplete a TextArea with a list of > terms. The response of Web service's XML is small - 4K. > > After a lot of research, We suspect that the bad performance happens > because the Restlet 1 is synchronous and if We try to migrate to the Restlet > 2 We maybe solve the problem. To do this migration my staff will spend a lot > of time so, I would like to know if you recomend this procedure to solve the > problem with the bad performance. If you say yes, we will do this doesn't > matter how much time it involves, but if you say no, we will not wast more > time. > Regards, Leonardo Queirós. ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2442586
