I did some testing on my app, which still implements the welcome app's default/index function that shows Hello World. Here are my results:
BEFORE TRUNK UPDATE - CONCURRENCY 1 =================================== Time taken for tests: 108 seconds Requests per second: 9.25 Time per request: 108.138 ms AFTER TRUNK UPDATE - CONCURRENCY 1 ================================== Time taken for tests: 108 seconds Requests per second: 9.21 Time per request: 108.543 AFTER TRUNK UPDATE - CONCURRENCY 10 =================================== Time taken for tests: 98 seconds Requests per second: 10.20 Time per request: 98.050 The last test was run with -c 10. According to ab, there wasn't any improvement, which is strange. I ran the rocket server using the following line: python web2py.py -i 0.0.0.0 -a password -l '/dev/null' I have the server running on a Ubuntu Server 10.04.2 virtual machine.
