You're absolutely right, I meant "cancel the deferred". I don't grok server sockets very well so maybe someone can help. But apparently, klein does a .doRead from our server socket (getting the request from the client?). This returns a "why" of "connection done" so that closes the connection before we have written our response to the client, and that cancels the deferred SQS write.
https://github.com/racker/python-twisted-core/blob/master/twisted/internet/selectreactor.py#L148-L155 The method above is "doRead". Which calls this: https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/trunk/src/twisted/internet/tcp.py#L239 I guess if If socket.rcv() returns an empty string it simply closes the connection. https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/trunk/src/twisted/internet/tcp.py#L249-L250 Is that normal? I mean I guess it must be but then why is the read getting an empty string and closing the connection? I can't really account for it? Some kind of back pressure due to load? Thanks for any thoughts.
