REBOL rocks

 [1/5] from: maarten::vrijheid::net at: 20-Feb-2004 19:16


.....today I did some preliminary tests on an async:// REBOL-based HTTP 1.1 server that I'm writing [ no. it's not in a decent shape yet, be patient. It will be free as in BSD-free, with XML-RPC on board and the possibility to run Reblets] On a 2Ghz Dell desktop with Debian Linux, Rebol sent out an MPEG-2 (DVD) at 6 mbit/sec with 0.3-0.9% CPU load. Same here on WinXP. Very very very impressive for an interpreter, hence the subject. Gabriele's async:// (also very impressive) is at http://www.rebol.it/giesse/async-protocol.r --Maarten (who is still impressed by REBOL after 5 years)

This is wonderful news! Thank you.

wow - That is great :-) Any idea when this server might be read for general testing/use ? good luck & thanks again - Jason

I hope within 1-2 weeks. I want it to be RFC 2616 compliant and embeddable in your apps, so that takes time. --Maarten

Oh, BTW: a standalone version of the rebXR XML-RPC (async://) will be available much sooner. The server is being tested by Andreas and I am trying to knock off an async client as well. This will also mark the end of Rugby. --Maarten
