MKR1010 Latency - Webserver

Has anyone experienced a 1-2 second latency with running the 1010 as a webserver? I notice refreshing the page, sending a request, etc. all contain the same latency. I do not experience this on the 1000 or with the Ethernet W5500 products.

do you send Content-length?

Not on the Server side? I'm just having it client.printlin(analogRead(0)) as example and hitting the IP via different browsers. I'm uncertain where Content-Length would be specified on server side.

show your code

I ordered an ethernet shield to test. All the default example web server code under 1.8.6 yield the same result. I guess the MKR Eth shield and Yun will be the only RJ45 appliance arduino has now?

This is just the stock code for SimpleWebServerWiFi... but each do the same. About a 2 second delay on hitting the page or refresh. The MKR1000's version, doesn't. It's extremely quick.

  WiFi Web Server LED Blink

 A simple web server that lets you blink an LED via the web.
 This sketch will print the IP address of your WiFi module (once connected)
 to the Serial monitor. From there, you can open that address in a web browser
 to turn on and off the LED on pin 9.

 If the IP address of your board is yourAddress:
 http://yourAddress/H turns the LED on
 http://yourAddress/L turns it off

 This example is written for a network using WPA encryption. For
 WEP or WPA, change the Wifi.begin() call accordingly.

 Circuit:
 * WiFi shield attached
 * LED attached to pin 9

Hi @drakerex,

Could you please open an issue on Github to track this: Issues · arduino-libraries/WiFiNINA · GitHub

I think byte by byte reads from sockets can be optimized inside the library to avoid this behaviour.

v1.1.1 of the WiFiNINA library has a fix for this and should be available on the library manager soon.

It works great in 1.1.1. I removed the library and upgraded. Pushed an example and latency issue is resolved.

Thanks!
