Oh, I also like the fact that you can hang one app at '/' and later > add more routes with '/blah' (and no need to change the original setup) -- > try doing that with apache. uWSGI is pretty incredibly ... compiles in < 10 seconds on my laptop, and does all kinds of exotic things to python C-API, and i'm pretty sure can use every single feature the linux kernel has to offer (namespaces/cgroups/etc) -- it's has been a great resource as i continue to learn C. btw, uWSGI can also handle the use case you described, and in about 15 uniquely different ways depending on taste and needs. ... uWSGI could even embed python and your entire pyjamas application *inside it's own binary*, allowing you to distribute a single file. i don't have nearly as much experience with Mongrel2, but the day i read about it i was instantly sold, plus i've seen quite a bit of Zed's work (eg, lamson) and am working thru his "learn C the hard way" right now. the N:N abilities of Mongrel2 is amazing, even if i can't think of a sweet way to use it yet :-), and being able to transparently interface with any language 0mq supports is a powerful feature. -- C Anthony
