Richard, Thank you for the comment.
I have examined web frameworks for PEP8 and CC metrics already. Results are here: http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/10/python-web-pep8-consistency.html http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/11/python-web-excessive-complexity.html Same applies to performance benchmarks: http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/09/python-fastest-web-framework.html http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/10/python-web-routing-benchmark.html http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/10/python-web-reverse-urls-benchmark.html http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/10/python-web-caching-benchmark.html and template engine related: http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/10/python-templates-benchmark.html http://mindref.blogspot.com/2012/07/python-fastest-template.html If there are any other metrics we can gather automatically I will be happy to run them. Thank you for your interest of wheezy.web. Before you buy: Demo application source: https://bitbucket.org/akorn/wheezy.web/src/tip/demos/template Demo application live: http://wheezy.pythonanywhere.com/ Tutorial: http://packages.python.org/wheezy.web/tutorial.html Finished: https://bitbucket.org/akorn/wheezy.web/src/tip/demos/guestbook Try understand what is cache dependency and how you benefit of using it with content caching. Try relate it with web caching benchmark from above and imagine 99% of your web application content is served out from cache, even it is dynamic (you control content cache with cache dependency). Thanks.
