*nod* Thanks for the tips. This system is actually for a client/server model to share a single DB between users without having to have a non-technical users install a 3rd party DBMS. And of course to avoid the hefty licensing costs involved with some of these.

Deane,

don't forget to set Min- and MacConnections properties of the ServerSocket, since
the server socket inits with a very small amount of available
server connections in its pool.

This may result in problems, if you need to serve several connections
in parallel.

Using RB 5.5.5., I never had problems like your one. Things work
fine at our site and at sites of customers.

Connection times/latency are much longer than - say - apache's times.
Based on a not too big number of clients - web clients especially - this
shouldn't be a problem at all.

In case you'd like to compare your solution against another one, try this:

Hi Keith,

I'm not having problems at all, everything works just fine. The issue is the speed of the establishment of comms. Stephen has at least confirmed it's not me and is a known problem, so I'm going to worry too much over it. If it becomes a concern for my clients down the track I may just need to write my service in C++.

Thanks,
Deane

Hi Deane,
I use the ServerSockets without problems. Any chance you're using a local instance of the ServerSocket and it's going out of scope at the end of your
method?

Hey Guys,

Am I completely missing something? I've tested a basic server socket,
receives a connection, sends a tiny response and closes down. Taking like 120ms(0.12s) all up. VB, winsock control looking at like 14ms(0.014s) to
do the same thing. Is this something that I'm not going to be able to
improve using RB's standard sockets? I'm doing the bare minimum (4 lines of code) to get the RB side going. That may be my problem, I just don't
know enough.

Thanks,
Deane Venske
