How long does the LinksSQL Link Checker take, on average, to complete a database of around 200 links?

Mm..depending on server load about a couple of minutes (guessing, thats what it took on my site).

Depends on your server's specifications, traffic, (LAN) network specifications, method of execution (telnet versus web browser), etc. (times will vary). IF this gives you any idea, takes between 10-15 minutes to check 1,917 links using web browser on a low volume (of users) shared server.

Hmm different answers to what I was going to give :)

Takes about 2 seconds per link for me on a 1ghz server but obviously it can vary quite a bit as the other two answers show..

2 seconds per link? Hm, that sounds about right. I've got my code working to check 200 sites in 387 seconds (best time, but varies) on a shared server, medium load. I'm happy with that.

Still, I still want to look into ways of improving this.

Are you using non-blocking sockets?

No, just LWP::Parallel::UserAgent.
