Use a recursive generator that yields Deferreds for loading each row.

Thanks for the example! Combined with a DeferredQueue to pass the data
from the callback to the rendering "loop", this approach seems to work
perfectly.

No problem!  Your Fan Club Dollars At Work!22.
Here's an example - which I even looked at in a web browser :) - that
should help to get you started. (The athena stuff is beside the point, it's just the quickest way I know to get a server serving a Nevow page...)

The athena-widget plugin is definitely very handy for quick examples
like this.

We've also been discussing a slightly more general "twistd nevow" plugin. More on this as it develops.
Warning: I haven't tested this on really large datasets, so it might have disastrous performance consequences. I don't *think* that it will, but I
know there are some booby-traps in the rendering pipeline to snare the
unwary.

As far as I can tell, nothing particularly nasty is happening when I use
this; if the overhead of producing each row is very low, all the
indirection through generators / deferreds might be costly, but that's
certainly not the case for my code (the database and formatting
operations are relatively expensive).

Good to know.

I'm not really sure what I can do to drive the ticket along, but if
there is something, please let me know.

I vaguely remembered this ticket when I wrote that comment :-). Some of the things that are blocking it are on my list of stuff to get back to when I get back to Twisted development at all.
