anyone thought about writing multi-process twisted applications yet?
looking at examples/web.py, it would be easy to do
reactor.listenTCP(1999, site)
for x in xrange(1,5):
if os.fork() == 0:
break
reactor.run()
for shared dynamic data you'd of course have to use something along the lines
of pb+remotecache, but if i'm not mistaken, for some applications this kind of
hack might give a performance edge, especially on multiprocessor machines.
in particular twisted.web could improve in benchmarks when being able to
emulate classical application behaviour for performance reasons
(no shared data between different connection handlers)
