New submission from Yang Zhao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: send_header() in BaseHTTPRequestHandler currently does a write to socket every time send_header() is called. This results in excessive number of TCP packets being regenerated. Ideally, as much of the HTTP packet is buffered as possible, but, at minimum, the header should be sent with a single write as there is a convenient end_header() functional available.
Behaviour is observed under python 2.5, but the related code looks identical in SVN trunk. Will contribute patch if request is deemed reasonable but no one is available to work on it; I just need a few days. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 72051 nosy: yangman severity: normal status: open title: BaseHTTPRequestHandler innefficient when sending HTTP header type: performance versions: Python 2.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3709> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
