⬅︎ Back to Are WebSockets faster than AJAX? ...with latency in mind?
Would be interesting to compare with and without Keep-Alive and also the difference between GET and POST
Is this perhaps skewed because the server sends a Keep-Alive header?
There's not really a difference between GET and POST requests, except how the server handles them.
Need to check up on the behaviour but AJAX POSTs used to take two packets - headers get sent in first and then once the server ACKs the client sends the body of the request.Yahoo discovered and documented it several years back
