Basically I am trying to find a high performance web server. Since Python is installed on all of the servers, It'll be great if the web server is written in Python as well. Otherwise, I will have to install lighttpd or other web servers.
Then the largest issue with Python-based web servers is performance. That's why I start to look into medusa or twisted-based servers. Twisted seems too big and complicated for what I really want to do and the original medusa web server only has very basic functionality. And I'd like the web server to have CGI/FastCGI and possible SCGI support for flexibility in application development. My applications here are really internal testing or data provider tools. Am I asking a lot? I think this is basic requirement for a web server these days :D What it looks like is that, although there seem to be many Python http servers available, there isn't really one that's simple, fast and feature-rich (cgi/fcgi/scgi) - I guess I am asking too much ;-p It seems that the only candidate that meetings the requirements but "written in Python" is lighttpd. Any recommendations? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
