Hakeem, Have you tried using curl from another machine to reach your Win 8.1 machine? I wonder if there isn't a problem with curl and localhost possibly related to ipv6 on the Win 8.1 box.
If Futon is fast I am more inclined to blame your curl build than CouchDB at this point. -Joan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hakeem Mohammed" <[email protected]> To: "Dave Cottlehuber" <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, April 27, 2014 3:12:15 PM Subject: Re: Tweet from Dave Cottlehuber (@dch__) Dave, I have *setup-couchdb-1.5.1_R16B02* installed. I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro. It is pretty fast from the futon interface in Chrome. It is visibly slow only for curl commands run from the command line Thanks!
