It does. There is certain level after which performance of `hello world` will not differ from real world application. The hardware I used got that limit at 22-24K per second. That is why I made isolated benchmarks. See difference between wsgi sample and others. http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/09/python-fastest-web-framework.html > On a somewhat unrelated note, I caught a minor typo in the content-cache > docs: > > "Since there is no heavy processing and just simple operation to get an > item from cache it should be supper fast" > > I don't know about you, but my supper generally isn't fast ;) You will see. Thanks. supper => super ;-) Somewhat later in a week there will be another benchmark for... caching. Take care. Andriy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
