Hi all, I need to run a python script called via xml-rpc that is kicked off by a cron job. This script will be making several dozen, perhaps over 100, different http requests to external servers, some of which can be quite slow on the return. I am curious to know if I am likely to receive a http timeout on this if the xml-rpc request takes a long time -- seems to me that that would happen. Also, curious to know whether anyone has done something like this before and may know of a better way, perhaps using threads, or another mechanism that would let the xml-rpc call return (without a timeout) while the remainder of the work is being done. I'd like to avoid changing the timeout value on Apache since I don't want to change this across the board, if possible. Any ideas? Any known recipes out there? Thanks, Kevin
