How frequently has your selection of web-framework ultimately been the limiting factor leading to a real-life performance bottleneck?
I've dealt with python scaling issues up to thousands of simultaneously active users and the performance bottlenecks have yet to boil down to the difference between which web-framework was used.
I agree there are certainly use-cases for a speedy python web-framework.
I am not sure I agree with refusing to abandon Python at all/high costs, and I question the value of Falcon for most of us. Since Falcon is well-suited to such a narrow band of use case(s), in most instances it contributes to the background noise of obscure web-frameworks.
- encoderer 12y agoNot all projects are the same. I've used cherrypy over django, for example, when I needed a simple encapsulated application for self-hosting. My point is, Python arguably is not the best choice for a self hosted product so you could dismiss cherrypy with the same argument you made. But we don't often get the joy of solving problems with just a single constraint. Above all I'm against dismissing something by reflex and crowing about it in a comment. He built it. He's clearly given the problem some thought. What value really is there in dismissing it so quickly and on the grounds of "Python is the wrong choice for this anyway.."
