once upon a time StarMedia's "geocities" like product ran on mod_python.. re: 28M guest users and 1.5M subscribers 3 ultra sparcs.. f5 load balancer.. terabyte raid behind it.. it's not designed to be plug and play though.. if you want to get expert functionality out of it you have to know how to design expert functionality there's plenty of horrible persistent java setups out there, mod_python is never that bad tweak up on your multiplexing skills make sure you follow the application path exactly as it really is under the hood, and you're as good as golden solaris context switching is still superior I believe, but the new xeon architecture seems promising as long as you design around it unfortunately my xeon box w/ hyperthreading is not my dev box :/ can't comment more on that
