Hi everyone,<br><br>I have been developing my first python script and jumped straight into the world of twisted. I like the concept but I seem to be doing something very wrong. The script takes an NZB file and parses it (using HellaNZB's parser) and then makes a specified number of connections to the news server and checks that all articles are there using the STAT command. I also know nothing about newsservers or nntp so this script is a complete shot in the dark. First time with python, first time with twisted and first time with nntp seems to equal disaster!<br>
<br>The problem is that the script is very slow, even with 20 simultaneous connections to the internet I only produce 111k or so of traffic and only achieve 2 article checks per connection per second. On a 24meg connection I can download the whole thing quicker than checking it with my script! Any ideas why it is so slow?<br>
<br>I have attached the script.<br><br>Thanks for any help.<br><br>Tom Greenwood<br>
