Hi, Boost Version : 1.47, OS : Windows 7 I am noticing consistently that DEBUG Version of ASIO is slightly faster than the Release version consistently. The difference is around 5-10%. I checked with the Boost Echo Server and HTTP Server and i was able to reproduce this behavior. It looks strange to me. This occurs when the client and server are in different machines. Can someone explain me on this? ( Nagle's algorithm was disabled in both the cases ) Thanks, Gokul.
