in reply to Webpage "get" slow with WWW::Mechanize
The page doesn't come down slowly at all for me. I had some trouble with 500 can't connect at first and had to add a parameter to the Mechanize constructor.
my $request = WWW::Mechanize->new(ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0 });It might be helpful for you try a TCP packet analyzer/sniffer to look at what packets or traffic might not be getting answered or otherwise getting held up or hanging.
