You are using a slow reference system, I can be faster: [ ZnEasy get: 'http://mc.stfx.eu/ZincHTTPComponents/Zinc-HTTP-SvenVanCaekenberghe.261.mcz' ] timeToRun. 454 [ ZnEasy head: 'http://mc.stfx.eu/ZincHTTPComponents/Zinc-HTTP-SvenVanCaekenberghe.261.mcz' ] timeToRun. 92 What I mean is, the server is another problem than the client side.
