Web page 404 about urllib3 HOT 5 CLOSED

This is because of #8 (urllib3 sends the entire url in the GET line, instead of just the path). Seems the servers running waptt.com don't like that.

I would suggest using https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests for now, which is built on top of urllib3 but does a lot of extra things for you like strip out the scheme/host from the GET line before sending it.

I've tested the grequests (Requests + Gevent https://github.com/kennethreitz/grequests) and Urllib3 the performance comparison and concluded that much better gevent + urllib3 performance than grequests ,so I gevent + urllib3

Interesting. Could you share your benchmark methodology and numbers? I'm curious to see where Requests is slow; I'm sure we can speed it up.

My other suggestion, for now, would be to implement your own PoolManager which removes the scheme+host from the request url before passing it on.

Requests speed is slower and more error

python gtest.py
by requests: 25.7797329426 seconds
by urllib3: 1.32646393776 seconds

Test code:

import sys

import gevent
from gevent import monkey

gevent.monkey.patch_all(thread=False)

import grequests
import urllib3
http = urllib3.PoolManager()

def call_back(resp):
    content = resp.content

def worker(url, use_urllib2=False):
    if use_urllib2:
         content = http.request('GET', url)

    else:
        rs = [grequests.get(u) for u in url]
        resps = grequests.map(rs)
        for resp in resps:
            call_back(resp)

urls = ['http://www.baidu.com/']*50

def by_requests():
    worker(urls)
def by_urllib2():
    jobs = [gevent.spawn(worker, url, True) for url in urls]
    gevent.joinall(jobs)

if __name__=='__main__':
    from timeit import Timer
    t = Timer(stmt="by_requests()", setup="from __main__ import by_requests")
    print 'by requests: %s seconds'%t.timeit(number=3)
    t = Timer(stmt="by_urllib2()", setup="from __main__ import by_urllib2")
    print 'by urllib3: %s seconds'%t.timeit(number=3)

@kennethreitz, thoughts?
