I'm looking for a very brief high-level pros vs. cons of wsgi under *apache *vs. under *nginx *and then to be pointed to more details I can study myself (or at least the latter).
Our application occasionally allows requests that consume a large amount of RAM (no obvious way around that, they are valid requests) and occasionally this causes problems since we can't reclaim the RAM readily from apache. (We already have tweaked with and do use "inactivity-timeout". This helps, but still now and then we hit problems where we run into swapping to disk.) I'm wondering if nginx may solve this problem. I've read much of what you (Graham) have had to say about the memory strategies with apache and mod_wsgi, but wonder what your opinion of nginx is and where you've already discussed this. I've read articles I could find you've written on nginx, such as "Blocking requests and nginx version of mod_wsgi," but wonder if the same weaknesses are still applicable today, 7 years later? Thank you very much in advance! Kent -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "modwsgi" group.
