Bill is someone who posted to this thread, apparently privately, though I thought it was to the list. I have run across mentions of Twisted, was just starting to look into it when this email arrived. > >As far as I know Python will allow you to come close to the > >OS/hardware limit for both threads and processes.

Yet another exceptional tutorial/code example btw, I think I've got it now. I need to go play with them both (processing and threading) to be sure. Thanks again!
