Re: [W3af-users] incredibly slow crawling and auditing

[Vojtěch P. <kr...@gm...>]

Hi,
okay and can I offer any help with this? I have chosen W3AF as part of
my bachelor thesis and this presents a big problem for me, because I
can't test the provided application. Offcourse this is not the only reason.
Best regards,
Vojta
