Irrational Exuberance

You are writing a comment about Overview of Single vs. Multi Server Architecture, here is a quick summary:

I've been thinking a bit more about all the various deployment options for Django, and more specifically how the variety of options can be a bit bewildering for those who haven't setup a server before. Here is a picture-assisted guide to the distinctions between single and multi server architectures.

You are responding to this comment written by Graham Dumpleton on February 16th 2009, 23:49.

The statement:

"""This is because each mod_python worker thread needs a Python interpreter associated with it, causing each worker thread to consume approximately 20 megs of ram."""

is incorrect, or misleading at best if I give you the benefit of the doubt and take it as you just badly wording what was meant.

Each mod_python worker thread does not need or use a distinct Python interpreter. Threads will operate in the single existing Python interpreter for a particular context. The default context for mod_python is the virtual host. Individual threads should not be consuming 20MB of ram. If you are seeing that, then it is something else.

I stopped reading at this point as don't have the time to respond right now in more depth, but will read article properly later and then respond further if need be.
