This is to be expected; Jython generally isn't very fast. If you want speed, use PyPy; it's going to be considerably faster than everything else. If you want to make a Jython-specific reactor for performance or platform-feature reasons, that would be a separate task, well after the basic select reactor and all of our support code works on Jython :). -glyph _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
