You mean we'd bombard the server X number of messages and count how long it took to send them. Could do that.
Sending stuff back and forth like I do now is, I guess, a bit more realistic.
However, a more common use case would be to bombard the client with messages. E.g.
for i in range(1000):
self.send({'msg': i})

I mean send the requests as fast as possible and time how long it takes to receive all the responses.
I wouldn't expect to see much improved latency otherwise when the network latency dominates the transfer time for the http headers.

Ooo, I like this idea. Find out how long it takes to send and receive all the messages as a whole between both HTTP and websockets.
