[Zope] Re: Unfair Linux Threads And Python Oh My

----- Original Message ----- From: Tony Rossignol <tonyr@ep.newtimes.com>

I have added my observation to the ZWiki devoted to Zope in production environments.

http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/Projects/HighlyAvailableZope/UnfairLinux ThreadsAndPythonOhMy What I infer from this that a single spinning thread can totally stop Zope on some machines. Couple this with the bug Jason Spisak reported today, which caused some DTML Methods to spin very tightly, and we may have the reason for some lockups. It would be *really* nice if Python had a mechanism to put restrictions on threads' use of CPU resources. Cheers, Evan @ digicool & 4-am
