I need a PHP cURL configuration so that my script is able to send requests and ignore the answers sent by the API.
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_se
How can you tell if the request succeeded or not? You need to wait for at least the status code from the server to determine that. If latency is the issue, look at the curl multi API to perform multiple requests in parallel. You should be able to set a write callback function to abort reception of returned data once the status code has been returned.
