is pycontrol slower than the perl API?

so to answer my question after some guidence, many thanks BTW, the delay in the python interface is really due to the fact that the wsdl has to be fecthed

 

 

using something like

 

 

b = pc.BIGIP(

 

hostname = ip,

 

username = username, user,

 

password = pswd, password,

 

fromurl = False,

 

directory = '/mywsdls/',

 

wsdls = ['LocalLB.VirtualServer'])

 

 

 

now has the same response time as the perl interface.

 

 

 

thanks everyone
