Thanks for the links. I had not noticed dexador before. I have it on my schedule this morning to re-work my network access libraries for an Azure web service, and also access to Wikidata and DBPedia. I have been using old code of mine that needs reworking. I will definitely try dexador.

I highly recommend it, dexador is much much faster than drakma

Thanks, I experimented with dexador yesterday, it looks good. I ended up adding a caching layer for all web service calls and SPARQL requests in my app yesterday - this makes dev and testing much faster, but won’t help much in production.

Sounds interesting, especially the SPARQL. What does your app do?

Agreed, but there are a couple of edge cases that drakma handles taht dexador doesn't.
