Storing ajax requests about skewer-mode HOT 3 CLOSED

How large is the content you're sending to Emacs from the browser? simple-httpd is currently really slow at receiving data. Emacs gives the network process filter function 4kb at a time. If the response is larger than 4kb these 4kb chunks are appended one at a time, reallocating a new string each time until the size matches the declared Content-Length from the browser. If your completion mode needs to send large chunks of data quickly in order to be reasonably responsive I can try to fix this in simple-httpd. It's just something that hasn't been an issue for me yet.

Skewer does do some request queuing in skewer-queue. When debugging it's often useful to clear this out.

Each request is a full-round of HTTP. If you need to rapidly make many requests at once I could make skewer smarter and try to handle bulk Skewer requests in a single HTTP request. Tell me if you think this is the problem.

I am only sending small amounts of data so it probably isn't an issue. I suspect it is todo with how the auto-completion library creates a candidate list. I'll let you know if I have any further issues with this.

I found a bug and may have partially fixed your issue in f97a793. I was queuing up POSTs that weren't looking for a response, slowing things down.
