I've tried all I can. I am trying really hard to excess flood. I've set msg-rate in the configuration to 0, 0.5, 1, 30. I've tried recompiling with a smaller MAXPENALTY(I've only tried 0 and 1...)

I literally don't understand why eggdrop is limiting the rate I am sending messages through any tcl method I can muster. I want these lines dropped instantly to the server, I want to timeout.

I know the server I'm on is not the issue because I can certainly excess flood in mIRC. I've calculated it to be ~10 lines before the server actually starts throttling and queuing my messages.

On the other hand, my eggdrop bot on this network is being internally queued regardless of what I attempt. I'm sort of keen on the idea of just removing the penalty calculations completely, as those are what I suspect cause this natural throttle in the first place.

I'm running 1.6.20 CVS.

Any suggestions are appreciated. (I know there's a queue for putquick/serv/help. I do know that there shouldn't be penalty calculations for commands such as putnow or putdcc, but for some reason there are.)

Well, putnow doesn't queue, if you use putnow only and you see it being slow, it must be the server throttling you.
