So, I ran into a problem that I would like to write as little code as possible to solve.
The problem is that I would like to send out a bunch of HTTP requests simultaneously, using asynchronous techniques, and then do stuff with the results in parallel. Think of something like Google's map-reduce. It sounds like this would be something someone else has done before. I searched google, but I don't think there is any discussion anywhere of anyone doing something like this. I am sure Twisted folks can code this up in 2 lines or less, or it probably already exists there by default. But I need this to exist in a non-asynchronous environment. I can't let Twisted take over everything. So, has someone done something like this? Is it something where I can bring the urllib and asyncore together? Or is it much more involved? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
