Get www site ( Screen Scrapes ) faster??? -= .NET C# / VB.NET =-

[gicio]

Hi!!

I have some code that get the contant of a site and display it...
it's a windows form application....

but it's too slow ( BTW: my internet connection isn't slow )

here is my code:

			textBox1.Text = String.Empty;

			WebClient currentWebClient = new WebClient();

			string strURL = _txtSiteUrl.Text.Trim();

			byte[] aRequestedHTML;

			aRequestedHTML = currentWebClient.DownloadData( strURL );

			UTF8Encoding currentUTF8Encoding = new UTF8Encoding();

			string strRequestedHTML;

			strRequestedHTML = currentUTF8Encoding.GetString( aRequestedHTML );

			textBox1.Text = strRequestedHTML;

the code problem is this part:

aRequestedHTML = currentWebClient.DownloadData( strURL );

What can I do to get a better performance?




Kind Regards,

Nothing.

The lag is most likely in part due the response time of the web server you are trying to connect to.

Some websites are delivered via proxy, so you get a cached version which are delivered fast, others are actually delivered on-demand.
