[web2py] web2py on Kodingen?

[mr.freeze]

It appears that Kodingen can run Django and Ruby apps. Someone with
strong Apache-fu should try to get web2py working :)

[web2py] Re: AutocompleteWidget suggestion

[Peter Etchells]

to continue, after finger trouble...

  .select(distinct=distinct,
with argdistinct=False in __init--


another less useful suggestion is to optionally allow the search on
any part of the string, rather than just the beginning.
rows = self.db(field.like('%'+
self.request.vars[self.keyword]+'%'))\

the autocomplete list is a little strange looking at first, but still
delivers useful results, especially if there are a lot of strings with
the same long startswith.

[web2py] AutocompleteWidget suggestion

[Peter Etchells]

Autocomplete is a very useful widget, thanks.

In case it has missed anyone's attention, it can be used to
autocomplete strings without reference to another table or field, eg

db.person.name.widget=AutocompleteWidget(request, db.person.name)

In this case, it is useful to have a autocomplete list with no
duplicates.

This can be achieved in the widget with (in line 399
.select(distinct=True, ...

[web2py] Re: About backward compatibility

[mdipierro]

Backward compatibility does not mean "forever" it means that we will
not break it in small steps. We will break in one big step by
releasing a new product, when/if there will a need for it. Like move
to 3.x in 2-3 years time. When that happens we will replace the form
system with a better one if a better one has been developed by then.

[web2py] Possible bug in Field.__getslice__

[mr.freeze]

Correct me if I'm wrong but...

In Field.__getslice__, when 'start' is less than 0, pos0 is a string
but the function always tries to do 'int(pos0) + 1'
The function should also probably check if 'stop' is sys.maxint which
is what will be passed for things like [-4:]

Also, are there two __getitem__ functions on purpose? Maybe the first
one just needs to be removed.

It's a fairly common convention for delivering mail to users on the local 
machine; you'll see eg 'r...@localhost' and the like. sendmail knows that it's 
for local delivery. (.localhost is also a legal tld, but that's another story.)

IP addresses generally, no.

They've benchmarked Twisted on it and seen huge performance gains vs.
CPython 2.6.2

I can't wait to download it on the mac tonight and see if web2py runs
"out of the box".  Do we have any easy way of benching performance

executing code not "playing well" with the PyPy JIT.

If I understand you, I think this is pretty easy w/ ez-css.   I have
now done a few layouts w/ it in web2py (as of last night), and have
sent you an ez-css layout.html for "welcome" app (it uses the css
classes from base.css, but a few settings that were assigned to table
elements, I had to update / put elsewhere - base.css has minor
changes;  ez-plug.css remains stock).

There are probably other things that could be cleaned up in base.css,
but this was pretty easy (once I realized how to go about it).

[web2py] Re: substring comparison in GAE query

[howesc]

Thadeus,

i'm not mixing frameworks right now - web2py has been my exclusive
home for over a year now. :)  It also looks like there is some sort of
substring tools with some (all?) of the relational db's
http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/eb8ce28b34fd0aa0/48bf0788ba899158?lnk=gst&q=substring#48bf0788ba899158
but i'm not using one of them today to test it out.  it's not in GAE.

thanks for the tips guys!  i'm just going to bite the bullet and make
the database upgrade that is the correct answer anyway.  fun with
updating code and testing!

problem also with web2py running one version of python and then under
apache running a different version of python  are they the same?

[web2py] Re: how to use GAE deferred

[howesc]

Hi all,

So i need to do an GAE bigtable upgrade today, and add a new field and
i need its value to be set properlyso i too want to do this.
Turns out deferred is not what we web2py people want.  just use the
taskqueue directly.  it's trivial (well i think it is, i have not
deployed yet, but it runs on dev_appserver):

in default.py add the following 2 methods:

def test():
from google.appengine.api.labs import taskqueue
taskqueue.add(url='/default/task', params={'key': "bob"})
return

def task():
logging.info("in da task")
logging.info(repr(request.vars))
logging.info("rec count: %d" % db(db.recording.id>0).count())
return

then, if you hit /default/test in your browser it will add a task to
the default queue - keep in mind that the default queue executes tasks
at 5 per second rate, create a separate queue if you want to configure
it more.  See TaskClass and QueueClass subsections of
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/taskqueue/overview.html.
Then watch your logs (if using dev_appserver remember to tell the task
to run - access the default queue at 
http://127.0.0.1:8080/_ah/admin/tasks?queue=default).
Note that if you blindly copied my code and don't have a table named
recording then you'll probably get an exception.

important bits:
 - pass params to your taskqueue.add() call, they show up as request
vars.  free.  no pickling involved.  whoo-hooo
 - now that it's handled just like any other web request in web2py you
have the full environment at your disposal.  not sure about getting a
login or session to the queue call though.
 - i don't have to figure out how to get my db.py imported into a
module. :)

good luck!

Christian

This is on the same computer?

Is the apache instance running the same version of python as you
installed the driver ?

I read every post and have not seen that.

Perhaps you mean db(db.table.string.like("%.com")).select()

[web2py] Re: About backward compatibility

[stefaan]

> for ever.

Of course everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion, but I would
like to point out that
while maintaining backward compatibility in the long run can lead to
some suboptimal code,
not maintaining backward compatibility in my experience causes
considerable additional
stress for developers using your framework.

Keeping backward compatiblity ensures that your users can upgrade
to the newest version at any time, without fearing the extra time and
effort needed to port to a new software architecture.
Everyone that at some point started to use the framework therefore can
keep benefiting from the latest and greatest features and fixes.
The framework for your web application basically never becomes
outdated/deprecated/... Support for it never has to be gradually
phased out,
leaving the early users in agony...

[web2py] substring comparison in GAE query

[howesc]

Hello,

I swear i saw a post in the last week about creating database queries
with substring syntax for filtering like:
  query = db(db.table.string_field[:4] == ".com")

but i can't find the post about that.  am i dreaming?  and does
something like this work on the Google App Engine?  I was trying it
but got an error:

  File "/home/cfhowes/clients/rockriver/source/web2py/gluon/sql.py",
line 2703, in __getslice__
s = self._db._translator['substring'] % d
KeyError: 'substring'

Thanks,

Christian

Not CSS3, anyway. 

I'm doubtful anyway, since CSS is so heavily embedded in browsers. I think 
we're stuck with the basic model.

Re: [web2py] Re: benchmarking: rocket vs pound with four rockets

[Vasile Ermicioi]

I would add a vote for Rocket.

A few thoughts about:
- rocket is developed inside our community, that means more control over it:
feedback, contributions etc
- still young, that means  it will be optimized :) I believe that Tim and
others will do so
- one file

And even if cherrypy is only a bit faster than Rocket (but is it?) I don't
see in that a reason to stay on cherrypy - most of the time is not on web
server response but on the framework and code itself

Re: [web2py] Re: Using the Template System to Generate Emails

[Thadeus Burgess]

The reason is because the content type is encoded as Text not HTML.
Without the proper meta information sent to the SMTP server, emails
will not display correctly.

Use the following class lined out in the wiki, works like a charm.

Re: [web2py] Re: Using the Template System to Generate Emails

[Alexandre Andrade]

the trick is that

message is first text, then html

mail.send(to=[recipient],subject='Controleer uw adresgegevens in
Fitwise',message=message)

will result in a text message.

to render as html, is :

mail.send(to=[recipient],subject='Controleer uw adresgegevens in
Fitwise',message=[None,message])

I agree that MJT's example is especially nice. But it also makes my point. His 
simple 3-column layout has 160 lines of CSS, not all of them for layout, but 
the lion's share. And that doesn't count the html that makes it go.

Compare that to the same thing with a table.

And I'm not arguing for tables, particularly, just that CSS should have made 
our job easier, not harder.

Example: I should be able to say, for that kind of layout:

Give me a box for the page.

Nest three boxes inside it, on top of each other, each the full width of the 
enclosing box.

In the middle of those boxes, nest three more, but left to right.

Let me give each box a name.

Let me constrain each box's horizontal and vertical extent based on any 
combination of content, container, percentages and pixels that isn't 
self-contradictory. Let the model understand the word "center" in both 
dimensions.

(Now, if on top of that model I want to define more boxes that float around, 
etc, fine, no objection. But it needn't be part of my base layout.)

And now let me, separate from that description, pour my content into named 
boxes.

When I first heard of CSS, way back whenever, that's kind of what I imagined 
it'd be like, from the early glowing descriptions. Boy, was I surprised.

[web2py] Re: Using the Template System to Generate Emails

[annet]

In my application all functions related to sending mail from it work.
The main function reads like:

def send_mail():
 
nfas=db(db.nfa.nfatype==4).select(db.nfa.ALL,orderby=db.nfa.bedrijf)
for nfa in nfas:
context=dict(nfa=nfa)
message=response.render('clublocatormail/
send_mail.html',context)
recipient=nfa.adres
mail.send(to=[recipient],subject='Controleer uw adresgegevens
in Fitwise',message=message)
return True

The send_mail.html view reads like (I removed the irrelevant parts):




   
   Template - Single Column


  body {
 background-color: #ee;
  }



   
  
 

   
  {{if not request.function=='browser_version':}}
  Having trouble viewing this email?
{{=A('View it in your browser',
_href="{{=URL(r=request,a='mock_crm',c='clublocatormail',f='browser_version',args=[nfa.bedrijf])")}}.
  {{pass}}
   


   
  
   


   
  
 

   
   
   {{=nfa.bedrijf}}
   {{=nfa.adres}}
   

 
  
   


   
  
   

 
  
   





I based this code on this article: 
http://articles.sitepoint.com/article/code-html-email-newsletters
and the templates referred to. I had hoped the view would display
without trouble, but it doesn't. In all mail clients and web based
apps, it displays as plain text, so the html is not rendered. I have
been trying to find out why for two days now, and hope one of you can
come to my rescue.

Kind regards,

Annet.

Re: [web2py] legacy databases

[Thadeus Burgess]

You need to define your tables in web2py. As of yet there is no db
introspection for db.

db.define_table('tablename', *Fields)

There is also a thing called "keyedtables" which is for legacy databases.

On the other hand "@services" are very very powerfull tool in web2py

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py beautification

[Thadeus Burgess]

There is a conspiracy that the google bot reduces the page ranking if
it uses a table layout instead of css layout.

I don't believe it though, since why would google NOT index something?

The limitations of tables mean you can't reorganize your content, that
is the beauty of css, you can take the same html file, plug different
css into it and have a completely different site, only because the css
file changes.

http://www.csszengarden.com/ (on the right side is links to apply
different css layouts to the same html page)

Its really not hard, and the box model is not that bad, its just
confusing and most don't know how to use it properly.

http://www.stubbornella.org/content/2009/02/12/css-doesn%E2%80%99t-suck-you%E2%80%99re-just-doing-it-wrong/

Here are perfect examples of the box model working correctly.

Re: [web2py] Re: benchmarking: rocket vs pound with four rockets

[Timothy Farrell]

In my own test, the difference (on Windows) between 1 and 10 yields a ~2.5x 
increase in requests per second.  I don't have a readily accessible Linux right 
now.  Kuba, please run these>numbers again with --num-calls=10.
 

my reality is a lot of concurrent connections with only one call.
I did num-calls=1 on purpose. I needed this test because of a "thing"
I am building and this thing MUST work like this.

Although I will try num-calls10 as soon as I have access to my testing
environment again
   
Perhaps it's important to state the context for which our benchmarks are 
conducted.




In the bigger picture, there are some other matters to consider:
- Who will likely run web2py with the build-in webserver?  New users testing
things out or devs running relatively small jobs.
 

This might not be true. My "thing" is not for users surfing through
some web application..downloading.. having sessions.., it is about
some voice over ip servers talking to my servers via xml-rpc. So, I
may need embedded server(like rocket or cherrypy) in production
because it could simplify cluster environment
   
My point here was about the general web2py population rather than your 
"thing".  No offense intended, but you have a special case.  web2py 
handles web-services but that is not it's primary function.  I think 
Massimo wishes to primarily direct web2py toward the traditional 
"browsers requesting web content over persistent connections" 
situation.  (Massimo, as always, I'm open to correction.)



thank you for your time, Tim, Rocket code looks really impressive
   


I built Rocket because I saw some deficiencies in Cherrypy.  I'm not 
expecting that web2py and Rocket will have totally compatible goals, but 
I do think that there is enough overlap for the projects to benefit from 
each other.  Beyond that, Rocket is young and there are plenty of 
optimization and tuning options yet to be explored.

The author of ez-css is refreshingly candid, at least by implication, about the 
suckiness of CSS for layout. One reason all his layouts work as well as they do 
is that all the columns have the same background (white in his examples). 
You'll notice if you look at the actual dimensions of his divs on the actual 
pages on the site that the column divs are not in fact the same height; you 
just don't see it because they're the same color background.

It may be that one's best course is to design around the limitations and 
idiosyncrasies of CSS; I do that, pretty much. My complaint is that its box 
model from the beginning was unsuited to what designers normally do, and the 
result is the proliferation of CSS frameworks that exist mainly to work around 
its limitations.

I *ought* to be able to say: put a full-width header and footer on the page. 
Give me n columns in any reasonable combination of widths that I care to 
specify, and make them all the size of the tallest, with single-pixel borders 
all around. And I ought to be able to say it simply. But I can't. 

I *can* say that trivially with a table. Tables have their own limitations, and 
CSS corrects some of them. But it seems to me that CSS shouldn't have made the 
layouts we can get trivially with tables difficult or impossible with CSS.

he used 1.0.1 - I am almost sure because  comments about Rocket came
on his blog entry earlier than yesterday and he was writing about
doing rocket benchmarks in past tense so my conclusion/feeling is that
he tested the version with a bug.

of course 4 processor cores. I tried 8 processes over 4 processor

It is fair. I'm not comparing my benchmarks with those from Nicholas.
My "thing" will run web2py so this is what interests me.

[web2py] Layout Plugin

[Matthew McNaughton]

Greetings team,
I recently tried to use the layout plugin, but my experience has been
less than stellar. After installing the plug in, and choosing a design
to use, I get a web2py site with only text and no color.

While I would love to get the layout plugin to work, any design would be
good at this point in time. I have tried clicking "Return to default" in
the plug in, uninstalling the plug-in, overwriting the base.css etc with
one from a default web2py also with no success.

I also watching massimo's video on Vimeo but I haven't had much luck.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you all.

By the way, it is advantageous to SEO purposes to always have your
HTML content physically in the order of relevance (meaning content
before sidebar, site name before content, etc...).

So having to define your content before the sidebar is a good thing!
Regardless if its rendered location is different.

 I have installed ez-css to try out / play with...  it does do fixed

 In multiple ways, actually (depending on how you nest it);

 See module 2A, 2B, layout 2, layout 3, etc

 Each of these use "ez-50", a 50% width element, or "ez-33", a 33%
 width element.

 ez-css encourages you to create your own width element if the pre-
 defined ones don't "do it" for you - so, crea

Re: [web2py] Re: benchmarking: rocket vs pound with four rockets

[Timothy Farrell]

Just looking over the httperf command, Kuba used --num-calls=1  This 
would not be an accurate real-world test because it creates a new 
connection for every request whereas most browsers span requests over 
only a few connections.  Nicholas Piel's test used --num-calls=10 for 
testing HTTP/1.1 servers.


In my own test, the difference (on Windows) between 1 and 10 yields a 
~2.5x increase in requests per second.  I don't have a readily 
accessible Linux right now.  Kuba, please run these numbers again with 
--num-calls=10.

This is a different test than the one I presented.  The test I 
presented was run on Windows with one instance and tested with 
ApacheBench.  I've looked at httperf a little and it seems to be a

Due to the nature of how Rocket handles listening sockets, it is a 
little slower at accepting connections compared to Cherrypy.  Nicholas 
Piel's test handles 10 requests per connection whereas Apachebench 
would handle 1000.  So there will be a difference by virtue of the 
difference in fresh connections.  This could explain why Rocket is 
slower with 4 instances, but that being the case it should also be 
slower with one instance (even though they hit some arbitrary external 
wall) which is inconclusive at this point.


I'd be curious which version Nicholas Piel tested.  I just fixed a 
performance issue yesterday for linux.  If he tested prior to that 
version (1.0.2) then yes, it would appear much slower.


Are these numbers consistent with Tim numbers? Could this be dues to a
different memory usage?

Note that my tests were run on Windows.  I'm not sure what Cherrypy's 
bottleneck on Windows is, but Rocket is not subject to it on that 
platform.  Also, Rocket uses less memory (by almost 2MB) than Cherrypy 
on Windows 7.  I haven't looked at memory usage in Linux but due to 
Rocket's less-custom code-base we should see a similarly smaller 
memory usage amount.


In the 4-instance test, this is not a use-case I'd considered yet.  As 
previously mentioned, Rocket is slower at accepting connections.  If 
pound was closing the connection (HTTP 1.0 behavior and some HTTP 1.1 
proxies) after every request, this could explain why Rocket comes up 
slower.


Some other things to consider:
- Kuba, how many processor cores are on your test machine?  Having 
more processes than processors will hurt Rocket more than Cherrypy.
- It seems that you are testing this against web2py (notice how all 
the responses are 3xx), perhaps you should just test the servers 
themselves for now.  If that's not the case, may we see the invocation 
code?


In the bigger picture, there are some other matters to consider:
- Who will likely run web2py with the build-in webserver?  New users 
testing things out or devs running relatively small jobs.
- What platforms will those run on?  Windows in the former.  The 
latter is anyone's guess.  (Let's not start a rabbit-trail about which 
operating system is better, just consider which one most students run.)


So here are some things to consider in this situation:
- Rocket measures (not horribly) slower than Cherrypy on Linux with 4 
instances running.  How common of a situation is this?
- Rocket is not affected by a major concurrency issue with 
single-instance Cherrypy on Windows.


I think going forward we should figure out which one is truly faster

slightly slower than Cherrypy but it should not be vastly slower.  The

Anyone know how to identify that wall that both servers are hitting on 
Linux?

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py beautification

[Thadeus Burgess]

CSS does not suck, your just doing it wrong!

Massimo, I have done this layout that you want many many times in css,
without a framework, ez-css makes this even easier.

And the way you describe it, ez-css does exactly what you want? Look
at their layout 2. So the blue number 1 (1 comes first physically in
the html) must have a size declared (your menu, 200px). The number 2
(content) comes second, and flows the full width of the container
object.

To take a quote from their site that is easy to miss. """The numbers
in the modules and layouts above show the source order (the HTML
flow). Blue numbers correspond to columns for which a width needs to
be set (which are all columns in a module but the last one in the
flow)."""

[web2py] Re: about syntax in web2py

[DenesL]

OK, but I believe you have another problem, in the statement

db[table].insert(field=sh.cell_value(row,col))

field here is evaluated as 'field' not as the content of the field
variable
so you are setting a field named 'field' to the content of the cell,
you would have to do:

db[table].insert(** { field:sh.cell_value(row,col) } )

and similarly on the other insert.

Re: [web2py] Re: benchmarking: rocket vs pound with four rockets

[Timothy Farrell]

This is a different test than the one I presented.  The test I presented 
was run on Windows with one instance and tested with ApacheBench.  I've 
looked at httperf a little and it seems to be a more realistic test than 
ApacheBench.


Due to the nature of how Rocket handles listening sockets, it is a 
little slower at accepting connections compared to Cherrypy.  Nicholas 
Piel's test handles 10 requests per connection whereas Apachebench would 
handle 1000.  So there will be a difference by virtue of the difference 
in fresh connections.  This could explain why Rocket is slower with 4 
instances, but that being the case it should also be slower with one 
instance (even though they hit some arbitrary external wall) which is 
inconclusive at this point.


I'd be curious which version Nicholas Piel tested.  I just fixed a 
performance issue yesterday for linux.  If he tested prior to that 
version (1.0.2) then yes, it would appear much slower.


Are these numbers consistent with Tim numbers? Could this be dues to a
different memory usage?

Note that my tests were run on Windows.  I'm not sure what Cherrypy's 
bottleneck on Windows is, but Rocket is not subject to it on that 
platform.  Also, Rocket uses less memory (by almost 2MB) than Cherrypy 
on Windows 7.  I haven't looked at memory usage in Linux but due to 
Rocket's less-custom code-base we should see a similarly smaller memory 
usage amount.


In the 4-instance test, this is not a use-case I'd considered yet.  As 
previously mentioned, Rocket is slower at accepting connections.  If 
pound was closing the connection (HTTP 1.0 behavior and some HTTP 1.1 
proxies) after every request, this could explain why Rocket comes up slower.


Some other things to consider:
- Kuba, how many processor cores are on your test machine?  Having more 
processes than processors will hurt Rocket more than Cherrypy.
- It seems that you are testing this against web2py (notice how all the 
responses are 3xx), perhaps you should just test the servers themselves 
for now.  If that's not the case, may we see the invocation code?


In the bigger picture, there are some other matters to consider:
- Who will likely run web2py with the build-in webserver?  New users 
testing things out or devs running relatively small jobs.
- What platforms will those run on?  Windows in the former.  The latter 
is anyone's guess.  (Let's not start a rabbit-trail about which 
operating system is better, just consider which one most students run.)


So here are some things to consider in this situation:
- Rocket measures (not horribly) slower than Cherrypy on Linux with 4 
instances running.  How common of a situation is this?
- Rocket is not affected by a major concurrency issue with 
single-instance Cherrypy on Windows.


I think going forward we should figure out which one is truly faster as 
a single-instance on Linux.  I wouldn't be surprised if Rocket is 
slightly slower than Cherrypy but it should not be vastly slower.  The 
goal of Rocket was not to be faster than Cherrypy but to be more 
concurrent.  So far that's true for Windows and inconclusive on Linux.  
I don't have access to a Mac, but I would be surprised if Macs performed 
differently than Linux.


Anyone know how to identify that wall that both servers are hitting on 
Linux?

Can you also do me a favor? Can you benchmark sneaky.py (in web2py/

was an improvement over it.

[web2py] About backward compatibility

[Alex Fanjul]

I've just got to read that the yii framework folks share the same 
oppinion as me about backward compatibility and the payoff to mantain it 
for ever.


Reading this article 
 
you can read that they have realased a big mayor version of the 
framework, now you have to choose what to do with your work:
-you can choose to manually upgrade your work using the official guide 


-or you can choose to stay at 1.0.x version

They also give you some tips:

-
SHOULD I USE YII 1.1?
If you are already using Yii 1.0 to develop your project which is about 
half-way done, we suggest you do not upgrade to 1.1 because there are 
quite some changes that break backward compatibility.
You just started a new project, we recommend you upgrade to 1.1 because 
it will receive most of our maintenance effort from now on. While we 
will continue to maintain 1.0, we expect it will only receive bug fixes 
in future.


If you are new to Yii, you should start with 1.1.

Of course it's a personal opinion,

[web2py] tableless and customizable css forms

[Alex Fanjul]

Hi all,
Some of you can remember the recurrent discussion about "tableless and 
customizable css forms"...
There is a new feature in Yii framework about forms builder and there is 
-at least- a very interesting article about it here:

http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/form.builder

It's so much curious that the aproach it's very similar to one which 
somebody told here (I dont remember well who was...)
Using a kind of separate classes to keep the render and the array of 
elements -buttons and input elements- including sub-forms...


maybe its a clue to improve the web2py system in this sense, regards
alex

return may only occur syntactically nested in a function definition,
you don't have one.

[web2py] Re: Performance of python webservers

[mdipierro]

serial web servers are faster (because no concurrency overhead) but
they are only appropriate when the requests are very fast (they do not
perform any complex operation) else other users have to wait in line
when a long running request is being processed. Not good for general
use.

Hello again,

dspiteself, I had a look to red5, and I have to admit that I do not
understand much about it yet.

If I manage to run a red5 server, would it possible to access it from
my web2py application? (Sorry, I am very new to such issues.)

Thank you,

[web2py] Re: gae appadmin

[mattynoce]

my mistake -- i upgraded to leopard and it started using python 2.6.
it still worked with the old version (1.74.11) but not with the new.
i'm sure that's the issue. sorry about that.

the problem was manifesting itself by telling me it couldn't find
wsgiserver but it seems that's irrelevant at this point. if you want a
stack trace, i'll put the path back to 2.6 and print the error.

thanks for the help.

[web2py] Re: Migrating web2py to GAE

[Al]

Thanks mdipierro. It is indeed the URL causing the problem, as it
defaults to "localhost" rather than "127.0.0.1" when I click the
Browse button after Run. I did not realise the code inside appadmin.py
actually checks for "127.0.0.1". Now I can really troubleshoot
myownapp to make it work on GAE

[web2py] Re: routes.py not working

[Francisco Costa]

Hello!

I've tried lots of combinations but none seem to work.
I really would like to get rid of the /init/ in the url.

Does anyone knows what the problem may be?

Re: [web2py] Re: benchmarking: rocket vs pound with four rockets

[Kuba Kucharski]

>Are these numbers consistent with Tim numbers? Could this be dues to a

1. Tim?
2. I have a lot of free memory while testing


I wrote email to an author of the blog entry about wsgi webserver
benchmarks - Nicholas Piël
http://nichol.as/benchmark-of-python-web-servers

In short he says:

>make sure you do not use ab
yes, in my tests I use httperf

>make sure you are running from other machine with limits also tweaked
this is done like that by me

>use recompiled httperf
done already

this also comes from him:

"I did a quick benchmark after being pointed to Rocket and I could not
see the same performance advantage for Rocket over CherryPy, more the
opposite."
