If you are running Django under Apache/mod_python, you may be better off investigating Apache's VirtualHost directive and run distinct instances of Django for each separate virtual host. And mod_python does use threads, but only when used on Windows or on UNIX with the "worker" MPM. By default UNIX systems still use "prefork" MPM so your version of Apache would need to have been explicitly compiled with "worker" MPM support.
