Instead of sleeping unconditionally for a 50ms, when no data can be read from the http connection(s), use curl_multi_fdset to obtain the actual file descriptors of the open connections and use them in the select call. This way, the 50ms sleep is interrupted when new data arrives. --- http.c | 6 +++--- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/http.c b/http.c index a4bc770..ae92318 100644 --- a/http.c +++ b/http.c @@ -664,14 +664,14 @@ void run_active_slot(struct active_request_slot *slot) } if (slot->in_use && !data_received) { - max_fd = 0; + max_fd = -1; FD_ZERO(&readfds); FD_ZERO(&writefds); FD_ZERO(&excfds); + curl_multi_fdset(curlm, &readfds, &writefds, &excfds, &max_fd); select_timeout.tv_sec = 0; select_timeout.tv_usec = 50000; - select(max_fd, &readfds, &writefds, - &excfds, &select_timeout); + select(max_fd+1, &readfds, &writefds, &excfds, &select_timeout); } } #else -- 1.7.8.rc0.33.g09c6f.dirty -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
