I decided to do a some tests (they probably shouldn't be called benchmarks b/c they are not real-world examples) to see how well PyISAPIe performance compared to other options on Windows. The big surprise for me was the difference between Symfony and Django (almost 10x more requests per second).
Granted, real world performance has everything to do with caching and tuning at multiple levels, but this at least gives me a warm fuzzy about continuing to invest time working with Django on Windows. ------------------------ Tests done with Apache HTTP server's ab utility command run: ab -c 10 -n 2000 [url] Summary of results when outputing a simple "hello world" message (number of requests per second): static html: 1049.18 PyISAPIe: 1007.87 PHP ISAPI: 962.41 PHP FastCGI: 677.25 PyISAPIe Django: 137.49 PHP FastCGI Symfony: 14.55 PHP FastCGI Cus.
