In what way am I tuning my example? Is it not the case that a redirect requires one more message with the server? Whatever the speed of the network (whatever your car is) you need one more message exchange with the 303 style. That is what 303s mean. With 303 you need a message to go from your computer to the server and the server to send a message back, before you can send another message out to get the content you wanted. In my experience at AltaVista working on the babelfish machine translation service, and work at Sun Microsystems ( now Oracle ) working on networking and Semantic Web tools, and now working on an LDP implementation, I am absolutely clear about the above, and one does not need that much experience to grok that either. A basic understanding of HTTP will do. If you have a different point of view please just write out clearly as I did in the first e-mail of this thread a use case that contradicts this, showing what messages get passed and how this functions. All I hear for the moment is inuendos and hand waving. If you have something serious write it out. Please.
