Slow webserver-plugin?

[kirtap]

Hi!

I'm having the problem that from when I issue an HTTP-request towards EG, and until it triggers the target event (in this case, sending some USB-IRT action) is a bit long. It is in the range of 0.5-1 seconds, and this is too slow for comfort. Is there any way to get this to be a bit faster?

When triggering any USB-IRT action from inside EventGhost, the IR message is sent directly, and the time until the request event appears in the log inside EG is roughly all of the waiting time.

There is no difference in using any other browser, so the time spent waiting is inside the Webserver-plugin of EG.

Is this a known issue, or something that I need to reconfigure to get the Webserver to become faster?

I'm using EG 0.3.7.r1462, on Windows Vista sp1.

I second the question. Webserver plugin is very slow.
I thing the do_GET() function can be optimized, or, instead of relying on httpBaseServer use something else altogether.

This is an Python issue, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2617 ... -localhost.

Do not use "localhost" as address to your EG, instead, use the appropriate loopback address, for instance 127.0.0.1.

That is interesting. Thanks for posting the update!
