[drakma-devel] eof error

ok.
I'm using 'pure' Drakma. I do not have access to other lisps and OSs.
However, I replaced Drakma's http-request with that of aserve and received no errors,
but an empty page sometimes and randomly. Now I'm sure the problem is outside of 
lisp and more on the side of the server, or somewhere in between.

Now I handle the eof error and return an empty page, and drakma and aserve behave the same. 
If I receive an empty page, I repeat the request, what is ok for me. 

What I learned now is, that multi-threaded access to this particular server 
(Oracle application server) takes the same time as 
single threaded serial access. And this is disappointing.

Thank you for your help and suggestions.
