Re: [Ftpapi] Using http_url_post_stmf - very slow
Thanks Scott. I realize the question was ambiguous. I was really just wondering if there was perhaps a newer api in HTTPAPI that was preferred over the one noted below.
It's going to be a tough one to diagnose. Network and disk speeds are usually very fast for processes on this system.
I was attempting to upload a file of 454KB. Not huge. It took over an hour. From a PC that same file uploaded to the same web service in seconds.
Anyway, thanks for the response.

Lorne,
There's not much information, here. "It's slow" is very hard for me to troubleshoot when it's not slow for me...
I don't think there's a "preferred approach" -- it's whatever works best for you. For sure, sending data from memory will be faster since there's no disk access involved -- but in most cases, this difference won't be noticed since network speed tends to be slower than disk speed
-- but maybe it's different in your case?
