Present and accounted for, sir!  I don't EXACTLY remember saying Adam

out of context.  :-)

I respectfully submit that you'd be insane to count on this level of
performance over time in production -- esp if you're talking about a
dozen DIFFERENT connections per second, each getting just one event. 
Even the Apache version requires careful tuning to make it plausible
for some jobs.

The Python server is by far the most efficient... but it's not
connected to a Web server.  I can't personally imagine wanting to
administer one of these suckers under those circumstances... but then
I'm no Python wizard.
