[twitter-dev] stream api---count parameter

2010-03-25 Thread erichou
Dear Experts,

Well I have been developing Twitter applicaiton,but encounter some
difficult. I don't know how to use the count parameter, and what is
the use of count parameter?

Now in my application, I use sample api download status, and download
20 status per second, But the download speed is too slow. If I want to
improve the speed, what can i do?
I don't know wheather I can improve the speed whenI use the count
parameter,if can, how to use?

For the streaming API, the count parameter indicates how many statuses back
in history you want streamed before switching over to the live stream.  This
isn't supported on any of the default access levels that I know of.

When you say the download speed is too slow, what do you mean?  That you
want more statuses coming over the wire?

Positive values transition seamlessly to the live stream. Negative values
terminate when the historical stream has finished, useful for debugging.
