MVC and server side scripting are two totally orthogonal things - you don't do the one and ditch the other as a consequence of that. MVC is a pattern of software design. It won't affect the performance itself, at least not the system performance. It most probably will boost your developing performance, as following the clear separation of data (model), application logic (controller) and view-logic (view) will help maintaining the codebase and make changes easier. And MVC doesn't depend on the language used - you can even do that in PHP, albeit it makes things much more dependent on discipline. Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
