Although the blueprint doesn't specify this level of detail, the intention had
originally been to deliver a queue-server model in Essex with a
distributed-model in Folsom. The first-cut code which passes tests does pile
onto a queue server. I now have code which implements a distributed model, but
it is in a raw state. There are a number of edge-cases a distributed model can
face, especially in regard to threading mechanisms (i.e. eventlet).
My current blockers for having this code ready for a merge-proposal are not
related to a single-server or distributed model. Once I address these problems,
there can be a decision on how much time is left to debug a distributed model
within a FFe time-frame, or if this can be accepted as a separate blueprint
within E4. If I get a solid 1-2 weeks or more for a FFe, I'll be more confident
in the distributed model as there is more room to test, debug, and fix.
By the way, I must note in this thread, that I haven't done this alone. A good
amount of this work, i.e. the first-first-cut, was completed by Zed Shaw and
was made possible through his QAL. Duncan McGreggor has been on hand, helpful,
and has contributed some commits as well.
