While continuing to experiment with buildout options and restructuring one of our applications to be self-contained, I started experimenting with a setup based on what zopeproject generates, which includes being able to run via 'paster serve'. I was pleasantly surprised to see Zope run on different servers, including CherryPy.
Our deployments for the past many years have been behind Apache via mod_proxy. I imagine this combination would continue to work just fine with Zope running on a different server. Seeing this post about "Trying on different WSGI Servers": http://blog.repoze.org/fitting_room-20071029.html got me to thinking about running on something different if we could get better performance, although my quick tests didn't produce much difference between `egg:Paste#http`, CherryPy, or ZServer. About the only thing that I saw of any interest was warnings about more threads running than there were available ZODB connections (seen on CherryPy, and I think on Paste#http too), but I didn't spend any time configuring the server settings aside from the serving-port. Is there any preferred server to use or not use? why? And ... mod_wsgi. I don't know much about it, but is it better to run through that than to go through mod_proxy? Or nginx? We had one new customer totally surprise us with their traffic/load (mostly solved, for now, due to some aggressive caching) and I'm interested in trying to find new setups.
