It definitely looks interesting. Here are some of my (rather vague) thoughts on the subject and the presentation. I haven't done anything massively concurrent so I can't offer many comments however, these are some things that linger in my head. - Can you really take advantage of multiple cores using a event driven framework. Will it fall behind a threaded system when multiple cores are available? - Issues with debugging/maintainability. Event driven code is quite different from the usual beasts out there. - Are there genuine advantages to event driven code or is it just the "current trend"? This talk which I saw around a year ago suggests that event driven is not *that* great - http://carlfk.blip.tv/file/2232349 Also, I feel that the talk is torn between "event driven vs. threaded (the comparisons)" and "Using a threaded framework - twisted (the example)". I think the talk would be more fun if you decided on one of these and focussed purely on that. -- ~noufal http://nibrahim.net.in _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
