Virtually all I/O calls in pure Python are blocking calls. Did you mean to ask about non-blocking I/O? > I'm currently parsing the c code for _socket.pyd and reading up on > Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS and Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS.

Well, any time I hear "high performance," I start to wonder whether Python is really the right choice. How much performance do you need? WSAAsyncSelect is a pretty snazzy way to deal with a socket server, and I suspect it could be adapted here without much trouble. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
