http_url_post Performance

[Natarajan Palani <natarajanpalani@xxxxxxx>]

   Hi Scott,

   I am using http_url_post API and getting the XML response back. Since
   the response XML size may exceed Maximum allowed in RPGLE, I am
   getting the XML response back through temporary IFS file.

   Question:
   I am experiencing a performance problem. It taking around 30 seconds
   to get a response back for a request message size of 353 kilobytes. I
   do not know if the performance issue is on the server side or is its
   http_url_post API. Can you please let me know if I can do something
   better to increase the performance.
   Below is the code for your reference:
               //Create a Temporary IFS File to get the XML response from
   SABRIX
               @IFSTempfile = http_tempfile() + '.xml';
               //Process to Convert the postdata/Inputdata to URL encoded
   data.
               form = WEBFORM_open();
               WEBFORM_setPtr(form: 'instring': pWk_XML_Input :
                              p_Offset );
               WEBFORM_postData(form: postData: postDataSize );
               // Post data and get document
               rc = http_url_post(%trim(@ServerName)
                         : postData
                         : postDataSize
                         : @IFSTempfile
                         : @HTTPPostTimeout
                         : *OMIT
                         : %trim(@URLEncodApp) );

               WEBFORM_close(form);
               if rc <> 1;
                 unlink(@IFSTempfile);
                 DS_HTTP_StatusData.HTTPErrDesc = 'HTTP Post Failed. ' +
                                                   http_error();
                 DS_HTTP_StatusData.ReturnCd    = HTTPPostFailed;
               Endif;
   Thanks for all your help.
