Hi Colin,

I've also tried using the fsockopen() and fwrite()/fputs() combos in my
script, to no avail. The script still executes at the same rate as the
socket_x() functions that I have used above. AFAIK (correct me if I'm
wrong) fsockopen() and writing functions automatically flush the buffer
out, depending on the status of the I/O. If there are any explicit ways
of flushing the buffer, please do let me know.

I have a faint guess that the server is running a QoS (Quality of
Service) provider, the connection is being routed, or the connection is
being briged (although both the web server and the application server
reside in the same DMZ).

Thanks in advance. :)
