title: PHP cURL required only to send and not wait for response
body: <p>I need a PHP cURL configuration so that my script is able to send requests and ignore the answers sent by the API.</p>
  
  <pre><code>curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
  curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POST,count($fields));
  curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$fields_string);
  // curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, false);
  //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS, 100);
  $result = curl_exec($ch);
  echo $result;
  curl_close ($ch);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried adding:
  // curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, false);
  //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS, 100);</p>
  
  <p>But its not working properly and the API webserver is not receiving the requests.</p>
  
  <p>The reason for this is I am sending large amount of requests to the API therefore my script is very slow because it waits for each and every request.</p>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated.</p>
