No, It executes every curls session you add to a multi session in parallel. if you have 10 sources with 1 second Latency you need only 1.2 Seconds to fetch them, not 10 Seconds. I think that is useful. If you look on our search Page: http://search.lycos.co.uk/cgi-bin/pursuit?query=cars You find Sponsored Links, News, Fast Search Results, our Directory Search and the Ads on the right side. HTTP Requests around the half World. The added Latence is around 7 Seconds. This moment we are using an additional Apache with a threads based Solution. That one is a little bit ill and I will replace it with the curl multi interface. thx, Boris
