Your point is circular; "fast enough (right now)" can be defined as "doesn't need to scale (right now)". For any given server app, enough clients will bog it down. If you're trying to claim that PHP has less trouble with this, I've seen a lot of PHP sites go down under load, so it is clearly not a non-issue. Python's scaling isn't automatic, it's just easier to do. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
