Slow transfer speeds

[Chris Mckay]

Hi,

I'm having an issue where dispatch (0.11.2 on scala 2.11.5)  is transferring data from a web service much slower than other options. Basic example here https://gist.github.com/Errorific/f2110306e69079e85b00 .

When I'm calling a resource that returns only a small amount of data (<10kb) everything is fast, <300ms for the call which matches my other benchmarking but for the resource in the example, which returns ~500kb, dispatch takes 1.2-3.5 seconds for the whole call. Benchmarking this same resource using other stacks the call is <450ms.

I've tested dispatch against other web services returning a similar sized payload and the same issue isn't apparent so I guess it's something in the configuration not agreeing with salesforce's service, but I'm lost for what to try.

Does anyone have any tips please for what to explore next?

Thanks,

-Chris
