Twisted

2006-03-31 Thread Andrew Smith 
I'm wondering if anyone has taken a look at, or spotted anything nasty in
the Twisted Python framework.

 

It looks like a wonderfully functional suite for async network application
development, however, it does require Zope 3 which is a little untried at
the moment.

 

Any comments with meaningful input would be welcome.

Last year I administrated a network for a distributed web application
written in Python. It was initially designed use Twisted 2.0.

We came to the conclusion that Twisted's asynchronous handling of
sockets was completely non-scalable.

I can't comment as to quality of code, but I'd look for an alternative
if you're expecting
large volumes of traffic to/from your web app.
