Greetings, I was the last time who asked your opinion about Infinite Loops and crontab. I settled with crontab where in the python program selects a number of records from a mysql database and then releases Threads (which is actually CORBA clients) that report to a CORBA server, wait a response and mark the record as "done" if everything's working fine.
The crontab is scheduled to run every 1 minute. My question is this: Is there any way I could manage the number of threads to release? How can I kill a certain Thread if its inactive for sometime? Also I encountered some bottleneck problems on mysql. What's the best way to avoid these problems? Thanks in advance and more power to python! :-) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
