Re: Experiences with virtualenv + Django?

virtualenv is good at what it does, but it's not a comprehensive deployment tool. It does one thing, and I think it does it well. A really good resource is JKM's companion repository to his Django deployment workshop, replete with slides. His

Celery is great for doing work asynchronously. In web contexts asynchronous work is useful since doing heavy lifting while the user is waiting on your response doesn't lead to high perceived performance. In non-web contexts, it is useful for submitting work into "the system" and having workers ch

I'd like to know what kind of experience people have had, in using virtualenv (to run a particular version of Python on a VPS) with Django, and related packages?
