For downloading purpose, Curl::Easy.download might be faster and has a small memory footprint thought I’ve not yet checked in detail. -> http://dev.ctor.org/http-access2/browser/trunk/bench/bm_download.rb
net/http is enough fast when you apply a patch at http://7fff.com/2008/12/20/faster-nethttp-for-ruby-186/ -> http://dev.ctor.org/http-access2/browser/trunk/bench/bm_common.rb
On ruby 1.9.1, httpclient is faster than curb and rfuzz on my simple try (not benchmarked enough; I don’t have foreign test server), but the difference is a little.
