NAME

       HTTP::Async::Polite - politely process multiple HTTP requests

SYNOPSIS

       See HTTP::Async - the usage is unchanged.

DESCRIPTION

       This HTTP::Async module allows you to have many requests going on at once.  This can be
       very rude if you are fetching several pages from the same domain.  This module add limits
       to the number of simultaneous requests to a given domain and adds an interval between the
       requests.

       In all other ways it is identical in use to the original HTTP::Async.

NEW METHODS

   send_interval
       Getter and setter for the "send_interval" - the time in seconds to leave between each
       request for a given domain. By default this is set to 5 seconds.

OVERLOADED METHODS

       These methods are overloaded but otherwise work exactly as the original methods did. The
       docs here just describe what they do differently.

   new
       Sets the "send_interval" value to the default of 5 seconds.

   add_with_opts
       Adds the request to the correct queue depending on the domain.

   to_send_count
       Returns the number of requests waiting to be sent. This is the number in the actual queue
       plus the number in each domain specific queue.
