+Improved performance of :py:meth:`~aiohttp.ClientWebSocketResponse.receive` and :py:meth:`~aiohttp.web.WebSocketResponse.receive` when there is no timeout. -- by :user:`bdraco`.
+
+The timeout context manager is now avoided when there is no timeout as it accounted for up to 50% of the time spent in the :py:meth:`~aiohttp.ClientWebSocketResponse.receive` and :py:meth:`~aiohttp.web.WebSocketResponse.receive` methods.
