Re: SMPP throttling

A perl script that forks itself (fork or threads), open the socket and
writes the
'GET /send... &to='. $number. '... HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n', close the socket (or
keep it open, I don't remember how's the keepalive feature of smsbox), and
repeat until the end of the list ?

I've once done a perl script that forks itself 64 childs to do snmpget's at
every 5 minutes
The machine has a continuous load of 5 for more than one year. Then "they"
disconnected it :(
