As others have pointed out, threaded servers can support comet load, but limit the scalability. I suggest you take a look at orbited (http://www.orbited.org/); it is designed for adding comet capabilities to threaded web apps. I am using it with turbogears for online shithead (http://pajhome.org.uk/web/shithead.html) and it seems to work, though my game locks up from time to time. I sometimes wonder if I'd have done better to write the whole thing in twisted.
Hi Paul,I've been on-and-off looking at what would be required to do exactly this for some new Fedora Web Apps. Do you happen to have blogged about this or have some open source licensed code/configs we could look at?
Our setup may be a little complex since we have multiple apps running on a single domain. I think we'll have to figure out a way to use one orbited connection for all of those apps otherwise we'll run into client-side limitations on the number of open connections to a single server.
Thanks, -Toshio
