Tags: The new release of OpenX (currently in beta) introduces a new feature, single page call, to serve ads faster. If your websites include more than one ad on each page, then upgrading to OpenX 2.6 will deliver ads faster and reduce the load on your server!
The new ad tag makes one request to the ad server to fetch all the banners needed for the page, hence the feature’s name. This is the reason for the performance boost, too: three individual ad requests puts more strain on the server than one combined request.
Although this new feature also allows the server to perform functions such as companion positioning by combining ad requests together, this useful new feature primarily provides better ad serving performance.
Find out more about single page call in the user guide.

When is 2.6 going to be released?

Hello Team,
This is really a great feature guys. So that the “ddos like ” access can avoid. This will increase the performance of the server. So in future let us see “netstat” as normal .
You rocks.

Super soon but we don’t announce ahead of time as it always depends on whether bugs are discovered. We hate making promises we can’t keep.

If my understanding of spcjs.php is correct, the Single Page call is essentially a modification (in the form of batching +/-) of the standard Javascript invocation code.
Is this correct?
