BTW, for assets, in particular, there is already a GET metadata method,
which is the same endpoint of the data itself, just with one more path
compoenent /metadata/, if I remember correctly. This should be enough to
know if the asset exists.
Doesn't address the issue of multiple UUIDs in one call vs one at a time.

Because REST is cleaner and more modularized than RPC. Just compare
the code and you will see that. Efficiency is achieved by designing
the REST calls intelligently. The /asset/ endpoint for instance can
benefit from keep-alive because it supports HEAD/GET?POST so
multiple operations can reuse the connection.
The exists query is orthogonal to that and should be another request
endpoint.

Not sure about this particular application but keeping a connection open
can eliminate the need to instantiate a connection whenever a request is
made; a process that can make several round trips to multiple endpoints.

Do you really save much with a single request vs a keep alive on the
connection? HTTP connection overhead is likely much smaller than the
database operations... do you have a feel for how much we'll save with the
multiplexed call?

Re: why use POST instead of HEAD: because this lets me check the
existence of
many assets at once with a single HTTP request. The main use of the
AssetsExist call is with HGAssetGatherer, which knows the full list of
assets that it wants to send, so it's able to check all of them at once.
