Like a modern code version of the mythical beast with 100 serpent heads, Typhoeus runs HTTP requests in parallel while cleanly encapsulating handling logic.
A single request:
Typhoeus.get("www.example.com", followlocation: true)
Parallel requests:
hydra = Typhoeus::Hydra.new
10.times.map{ hydra.queue(Typhoeus::Request.new("www.example.com", followlocation: true)) }
hydra.run
gem install typhoeus
gem "typhoeus"
