in thread Multithreaded process on AIX slow

Is the REST code using some kind of semaphore internally? You've been running this same code, with REST, on other machines and it's only slowing-down on one?

    Hi

    Appreciate the further thought. All good to help the juices flow :-)

    Identical code - yes. I guess I need to go look at the actual REST::Client and HTTP::Request CPAN module sources to see what they are doing to answer that.

    I know when I developed the surrounding code back in 2008 I discovered a bug/feature in the Perl threading mechanism and variable sharing (reported back on it) that had me going in circles for a while, but led to some interesting workarounds that ended up making the code more efficient as a result. That isn't related to this though. I suppose I'll just have to dig through those net modules and see as well on this. Oh well :-) All good fun.

    Kind regards
