Hi Below is my code: ---------------------------------------------------------- require 'net/http' params = {'s'=>'GOOG'} url='http://finance.yahoo.com/q' puts Time.now post_result= Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse(url),params) puts Time.now ---------------------------------------------------------- And its running result: Wed Aug 15 09:11:48 +0800 2007 Wed Aug 15 09:12:02 +0800 2007 I think this is slow since the post_form will not downloading pictures in the post reply page. And when I type the url 'http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=GOOG' in my firefox , it will show the complete page including pictures in about 10s. If I configure the firefox to not download pictures, it need only 4s. So,how I can I make post_form reply more fast? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
