Nope - I've run benchmarks using various implementations in PHP and using
libcURL was the fastest (running the `curl` program was the slowest, also
tried 'file()', 'file_get_contents()' and my own URL wrapper with
'fsockopen()'). You can even do strange things like client side
certificates.
Only issue is when the other end doesn't really speak HTTP - I've got a
couple of companies I deal with whom *claim* they talk HTTP, but don't.
