Gary, it would be an occasion to check you persistent queue and see how we could add this to ZODB and make zasync use it. Cool. Yes, I'll try to get the persistent queue in ASAP.

Other question : how people would feel about an integration of zasync, or another implementation, into the Zope core ? The functionality is certainly very, very useful for large sites (and for any site that needs big work done on demand, I guess). I wonder if the configuration approach I took makes it too heavy for the core, though. Certainly, this was a first generation, and there are a number of things I wish I had done differently, beyond better tests: I started writing them down here, in the beginning of what I plan to be a Zope3-based rewrite (largely ZODB-based, hopefully, rather than too many dependencies on Zope 3; we'll see): http://svn.zope.org/Sandbox/poster/zope.zasync/README.txt?view=auto Zope 2 isn't WSGI/Twisted yet, is it? The zasync rewrite (which I'm working on occasionally personally now, and will need at work in a couple of months) might work pretty well in Five if the Twisted reactor is used in Zope 2. If not, maybe someone knowledgeable in Medusa could write an equivalent. Finally, maybe others have a zasync approach that would be a better choice. Within a month or so I hope to put up a proposal for the zasync rewrite so folks can comment on it and see if it's going a direction they like (or see if they can push me in a direction they like :-). I am hopeful that it will feel lighter than the current implementation. Alternatively, if there's an effort by other folks to write another approach entirely, cool!

Alternatively, if there's an effort by other folks to write another approach entirely, cool! ok let's wait for your proposal to discuss about it. Sounds great. You can expect us to get involved since we're having a huge need of zasync for a while now. zasync works fine for now on our side (and deeply overloaded here on production instances ;) Apart from the BTrees conflicts errors we had, that are fixed now with the persistent queue.
