The thing is, the same thing works for python, or perl, or any number of other things. Those you can switch to mod_<language> or an external CGI daemon running embedded <language> or similar things to get performance. On the other hand, tossing a CGI shell script onto a heyu installation to read an outside thermometer is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. I don't expect even 10 requests a second for the temperature on my porch. <mike -- Mike Meyer <m...@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Network/Unix/Perforce consultant, email for more information.
