Came across the following blog entries today, for those interested in this sort of thing:
http://attentionshard.wordpress.com/2011/04/26/scaling-django-to-30000-requests-per-second/ http://attentionshard.wordpress.com/2011/04/03/scaling-to-30k-two-level-caches/ Interesting approach. Although you'd have to be careful what context it was used in (i.e. if your code is written under the assumption that the caching server is atomic). http://attentionshard.wordpress.com/2011/04/26/scaling-to-30k-tsung/ Never heard of tsung before, looks pretty nice. Will try it out for sure. http://attentionshard.wordpress.com/2011/05/03/scaling-to-30k-haproxy-on-ec2/ Can't comment much on this, as we've never used haproxy. The stack they have used is quite interesting. Although they are using Apache w/ mod_wsgi (which tends to be a lot slower than using nginx with uwsgi), they still seem to have got some decent performance out of it. http://attentionshard.wordpress.com/2011/06/21/behind-the-scenes-using-cassandra-acunu-to-power-britains-got-talent/ Explains a bit of their usage of using Cassandra. Would be interesting to see some benchmarks though. Cal -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
