[issue3766] socket.socket.recv broken (unbearably slow)

[Sam]

Sam <samslists at gmail.com> added the comment:

I know this bug is closed, but I too am experiencing it under Linux 
2.6.24-22 and Python 2.5.2.

I'm using urllib2, and it's just spending an obscene amount of cpu time 
in {method 'recv' of '_socket.socket' objects}....

Anyone have any ideas?

Would switching to httplib2 help?
