delay after connection request

[elcomit]

Hi, in the example code:
....
Serial.println("Connecting mysql...");
if (conn.connect(server_addr, 3306, user, password)) {
delay(1000);
Serial.println("Connection mysql OK.");
// Initiate the query class instance
....

why the delay(1000) is added? Is it mandatory or can it be changed/removed ( and, depending on what?) ?
Thanks

Hi. The delay is optional and I found it necessary to allow the relatively slow microcontroller to process network packets. You can experiment and adjust it as your hardware allows, but likely a sleep of some duration may be necessary.
