I'm trying to create a script that send's over 1000 requests to one page at the same time. But requests library with threading (1000) threads. Seems to be doing to first 50 or so requests all within 1 second, whereas the other 9950 are taking considerably longer. I measured it like this.
def print_to_cmd(strinng):
queueLock.acquire()
print strinng
queueLock.release()
start = time.time()
resp = requests.get('http://test.net/', headers=header)
end = time.time()
print_to_cmd(str(end-start))
I'm thinking requests library is limiting how fast they are getting sent.
Doe's anybody know a way in python to send requests all at the same time? I have a VPS with 200mb upload so that is not the issue its something to do with python or requests library limiting it. They all need to hit the website within 1 second of each other.
Thanks for reading and I hope somebody can help.
I have generally found that the best solution is to use an asynchronous library like tornado. The easiest solution that I found however is to use ThreadPoolExecutor.
import requests
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor
def get_url(url):
return requests.get(url)
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=50) as pool:
print(list(pool.map(get_url,list_of_urls)))
