Actually, I've seen 20 copies of Webware *and* Apache run just fine on a
single box (700Mhz, 256MB RAM) dedicated to it. Presumably, if your team
had 20 developers you could afford an extra box for them.
But also, in my previous message I pointed out that the very latest Webware
CVS no longer augments sys.path with the context directories. That should
solve the problem you had, although you could have other problems. Like if
a developer wanted to test a new version of MySQLdb without requiring the
others to use it.
Also, you mentioned you were doing this so you could test each of their
applications. It seems to me that 1 developer does not necessarily mean 1
application. For example, I work on a single web application with 2
developers, but we only have 1 context and therefore, one Webware process.
You might have 20 developers, but only 5 applications.
