I didn't realize you could do shared hosting with mod_python, because
of the lack of security barriers between Python objects (i.e. someone
else's application could reach into yours).  You really need a
separate interpreter per user.  A typical shared hosting place might
support 1000's of users with ONE apache/php instance (running in a
whole bunch of threads or processes, to be sure).
