This means that there's an update to a comet component (the clock) every 10 seconds. > , but its a very quick operation, its not > an actual poll on the page afaiu There's a very fast path in the code for the poll and it's all done over an http keep-alive anyway. If there's anyone who has an idea better than long polling for server to client push (other than HTML 5/WebSockets), I'm all ears. If the amount of traffic that long polling creates on your site because of long polling exceeds your capacity (in my calculations, 100,000 active sessions per dual core server machine), then you can remove the comet component.
