[mod_python] Confused about file caching

Alex.. It would be easier to be of help if I could see the snippet of  
code that is reading and writing this file .. also more information  
would be useful .. how frequent are the updates to this file? are they  
happening from lots of clients or just one.. it could be that your  
reading the file before the new changes are written to it .. but I  
couldn't be for sure where you should look without more information.
