High-performance Python websites

[Aaron Watters]

The key to scaling a web site is to make
sure you can load-balance to as many front
ends as needed and then use a common database
backend that is fast enough or possibly a
common file system that is fast enough.

I can't speak to Django specifically but
you can certainly get essentially unlimited
scalability on the front-end side of the
equation using a Python based web app.

The google app engine will set such a
configuration up for you automatically, but
they are still working some bugs out
with regard to performance, I think,
based on my experience here
   http://whiffdoc.appspot.com/
and here
   http://listtree.appspot.com/

I hope that helps.
