re preformance on GAE: it's a mixed bag. because of the different database structure, data access can have very different characteristics. Also, google requires that all requests must complete in under 30 seconds (which is not necessarily a limit in shared hosting). But, it scales to more requests very very well, while database "scaling" is different from relational databases. when the app is accessed frequently enough to remain in google's cache i find that they respond to the end user just as well as other applications i have running on slicehost with postgres. i have done no formal benchmarking though.
i think what i'm trying to say is that for an app designed to run in the GAE infrastructure, it will run at least as well as an app in a shared hosting environment. cfh On May 22, 1:33 am, GoldenTiger <goldenboy...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have found a lot of contradictorius information about Web2Py > compatibility along internet, due to changes in diferent version, I > suposse > > I am trying to installing web2py at Hostgator without sucess , with > Python 2.4.3 > Sometimes Hostgator Support say NO it is not compatible at shared > hosting, another times they say me YES it is compatible > > Anyone could install it at a hostgator ? > > Please I would like to know actual information: > > 1- Is there any stable version supporting Python 2.4 actually?
