Dude, *stop it*. Seriously. Independently of whether I personally think that mod_swgi is simply a pile, I haven't joined its mailing list to give off about it and promote Cherokee; have I? It'd be lame. Let's face it. It is plain and simple: ignore the Apache+mod_wsgi architectural madness for a second and make the real test. As I said, you will see that it is a much faster solution - and of course, more reliable and secure. But again, I don't think you are seeking any sort of technical discussion here; so cut the.. noise, please. -- Greetings, alo http://www.alobbs.com/ _______________________________________________ Cherokee mailing list [email protected] http://lists.octality.com/listinfo/cherokee
