Speed and stability enhancement [better usage of httpClient].

Arnaud Heritier added a comment - 27/Dec/05 11:07 AM Here are some tests I made. I generated the report (maven maven-linkcheck-plugin:clearcache maven-linkcheck-plugin:report-real) for the m1 root site with different settings : maven 1.0.2 (http client 2.0) + old linkcheck 1.3.4 : Total time: 6 minutes 12 seconds + new linkcheck 1.4 (with some speed enhancements) : Total time: 2 minutes 13 seconds maven 1.1 beta 3 (http client 2.0) + old linkcheck 1.3.4 : Total time : 9 minutes 9 seconds + new linkcheck 1.4 (with some speed enhancements) : Total time : 5 minutes 38 seconds maven 1.1 beta 3 (http client 3.0) + old linkcheck 1.3.4 : Total time : 14 minutes 45 seconds + new linkcheck 1.4 (with some speed enhancements) : Total time : 2 minutes 46 seconds These times are approximate because there is always a difference due to the time needed for the web sites to reply between 2 tests. I repeated theses tests several times to have results more or less stable and I chacked that the results were consistent. The enhancements I made seems to be good compared to 1.3.4 release with all maven config. What I don't (yet) understand is why we have so bad results with 1.1 compared to maven 1.0.
