one socket opened per send

Reported by geir | December 30th, 2008 @ 12:25 PM

It seems that couchrest opens one socket per send. The program :

require 'couchrest'

def save(n) couch = CouchRest.new("http://localhost:5984") db = couch.database('geirtest') n.times { db.save({ "name" => "geir" }) } end

t1 = Time.now

thread1 = Thread.new{save(100)} thread1.join

t2 = Time.now

puts t2 - t1

opens lots of sockets.

1) Am I interpreting things right?

2) Can there be a mode where the library takes advantage of keepalive to avoid the socket creation overhead?

Forgive my crappy ruby code.

    You wouldn't want to do this without some sort of thread queue or thread management as under heavy loads the ruby vm will not hold up with N# of Threads spawned. The better way is and I already started this is moving away from IO blocking http client RestClient/Curb/Net::Http. I started to break up the http calls in to and generic interface. RestAPI generic module calls the http client adapter. I just did this for curb(libcurl) http://github.com/CodeMonkeyKevin/couchrest but the same can be done for EventMachine.http, much like em-couchdb where the calls are not IO blocking.
