Re: [Simpleweb-Support] limiting the number of requests handled per connection

[Niall G. <ni...@em...>]

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, I replied to this about 5 or 6 weeks ago and still it =
has not appeared in the mail archives. Anyway, I would like to see your pat=
ch. My guess is that the best way to do this would be to create a Poller su=
bclass that could count the number of requests processed and close the sock=
et after x number of requests have been handled.
