I haven't tried mod_wsgi yet, so I'm doing it using mod_python. (I don't see a compelling reason to dump mod_python yet, not to mention the learning curve and potential time-cost to convert my scripts from mod_py to mod_wsgi - I don't really know if there are any, just guessing here...) Invoking

You're right. Keeping a running Gimp daemon in memory would most certainly speed things up (for subsequent calls) I recall the python tutorial has some sample code on writing simple servers in python (so, the python code is already available, therefore I'd guess it's probably just a matter of

Hi, I run gimp and mod_perl on a production server and trigger longer jobs using the 'at' command so as not to keep users hanging around for a result. Some of the runs can generate upwards of 1,000 or so images, so the connections were timing out long before the job ever ended. For shorter jobs,
