More than one line a second?

[Philw]

Hi All

Hoping this is a really easy question for you to answer. We have a bot that needs to output a lot of text as it monitors some of our systems.

We have noticed than when it receives a back log of text it will only output at 1 line a second. Is this a restriction of eggdrop that can be lifted? We have our own ircd server so not worried about being kicked for flooding.

We are using a FIFO Pipe to store and read the text from, could this be the cause if eggdrop has no limit?

Hope someone can shed some light.

Sorry should also add,

using putquick to send messages to server, have tried all the others

[TCL_no_TK]

server module, line 122 on wards

Code: Select all

/* Number of seconds to wait between transmitting queued lines to the server
 * lower this value at your own risk.  ircd is known to start flood control
 * at 512 bytes/2 seconds.
 */
#define msgrate 2

worked perfectly.

Thanks very much for the quick response

You can also use

Code: Select all

putdccraw 0 [string length "privmsg #channel :text"] "privmsg #channel :text"

which will directly send the command to the IRCd instead of passing through Eggdrop's queue.
