Som info for this page was extracted from the libsoup ToDo page.

"I found that libsoup is far slower than libcurl. It uses at least 4x the amount of CPU to transfer a high-bitrate datastream over HTTP. I attribute this to the over-reliance on heavy-weight glib/gobject constructs. Man, that stuff is slow *and* a pain to use!" - [name withdrawn] #include "_footer.html"
