Many monks have already answered, but only on a technical level. And in that respect I have nothing to add.
However, I can't help but wonder what the timing information will tell you. Either you need a copy of a page at a specific time, or you don't. Unless you want to use the timing information to be able to determine how often you can fetch the remote page before you start overlapping requests. I don't know whether that is the case or not, but if it is, and if I were the hostmaster of this website from which you are repeatedly fetching pages without my explicit consent, I would consider your action to be akin to a DoS attack. Not to mention the possible copyright violations involved if you are redistributing the obtained information further. In your example you're using the Perl Monks website. I'm only a user for a few weeks so far, but I already find Perl Monks sluggish at times. And I wouldn't be surprised if it were "experiments", such as yours, are at least partly responsible for this. I may seem a bit agitated about this, but I just have had to block too many stupid slurpers in my life. Liz In reply to Re: Transaction time for LWP::UserAgent GET
