It is more lightweight and faster than full scale machine emulators because
it uses a modified system kernel (so it only works on *nixes it has been
ported to). You can set the virtual memory of each instance to keep
programs from eating the world. I don't know about CPU, you mi
the index and slow down access to the popular projects. Would a
naive file-based implementation have been just as bad? maybe.
If there is interest I'll follow up with some details on my own LAMP
software which does live reports on gigs of data and - you guessed it -
I regret it is database backed. That story also involves why I started
using Python (the prototype was in PHP).

segfaulted (at least back to 2.2, I didn't check 1.5).
While it feels uneven that other types can't get this kind of segfault the
fact that no one else has ever run accross it makes the point moot.
Unrelated, it looks like PySequence_* doesn't have much reason to live now
that
the source is small and readable).
The best thing to do would be to load your module last and conitionally
call Py_Initialize() if someone else hasn't already.

MySQL will keep table locks until the results are all fetched so even though
the DB API allows fetchone() or fetchmany() using those with MySQLdb is
dangerous.

The bz2 module is implemented in C so calling "f.readline()" repeatedly
has extra Python => C call overhead that "f.readlines()" doesn't have
because it stays in a tight C loop the whole time.
