Yes it's blocking. As far as a know all get/puts to urls is blocking local or remote. The only way I know of not blocking is to use tsNet Async. It works very nicely even on mobile. I download some files in the background while the user is logging in. The login process uses get/puts and they are blocking but are not blocked by the simultaneous outstanding async operations.

Hi, a question… The statement: put URL tURL into tData tURL, the URL to a text file, resides on a remote server. Is this command blocking? Does LC wait for a response before moving on the the next line of the script? I’m not clear at all about gets, puts, etc. -- what I need to do if there is a delay in retrieving data, when I need that data in hand before continuing in a script.
