Libcurl used an unnecessarily long blocking delay for actions with no active file descriptors, even for short operations. This meant that some actions (such as resolving a hostname using /etc/hosts) took an artificially long time to complete. The blocking code in libcurl has now been modified so that the initial delay is short, and gradually increases until an event returns. Fast libcurl operations now complete more quickly.
ooh, even better, 7.2 finally brings kpatch - no more rebooting for kernel updates in RHEL/CentOS !
