It sounds like you must be I/O bound. What's your CPU utilization at that load? Suspecting session traffic to the DB makes sense; any write to the request.session state bag forces serialization to the DB. If you're dirtying session often, that's a lot of traffic to the DB, and all on one table. I figure it's a matter of time until someone writes a non-DB backend for sessions. ;-) Anyway, you could use tethereal to see what your web/db traffic looks like, and similar tools (sorry, none at hand) to see if your pipe is full or if your db is disk bound. I dunno much about MySQL tuning, sorry. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
