Well, they all play a role. 128k isn't peanuts. And the data being returned isn't that much. > > If you were running your tests from the Netshare system, > your results may > have been skewed by an overloaded system on your side. No, the system never was over 60% during the test. I keep an eye on that. > Do you want to test > your system or mine?

That's why I test the way I have it. I've had very consistant results even when doing 100 simultaneous hits. I've even load tested my own Linux Apache server running on a 56k dialup with excelent results... bandwith is rarely the problem. I'm not trying to prove your product doesn't work. But, if you're that worried about your CPU and network causing problems, maybe you have a customer with a bigger box that would allow me to test on instead. I was under the impression that your product saved CPU and resources as compared to the HTTP servers.. so that should have some affect. Maybe I'll set up my PC to pound on your server for a while. :) We'll see.
