The biggest difference (and you can decide whether it's an advantage for your environment or not) is that the ThreadingMixin starts a new thread for each request, while CherryPy's PooledThreadedServer uses a thread pool. That is, you start some number of threads (say, 10) when you start the server, and those threads serve all requests as they are able. The big advantage I was secretly hoping for was that you'd read up on CherryPy and discover it already does what you want. ;) Robert Brewer System Architect Amor Ministries [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
