Doesn't this mean the web server automatically closes HTTP connections when request.close() is called?

Does Twisted.Web support persistent connections and pipelining?
Kindasorta. I believe it does HTTP 1.1 persistent connections.
how can I take advantage of this, if it does? And, if not, do you feel the interface is such that support for persistent connections can be transparently added?
It's all automatic, as far as it goes.
The new version of the http protocol for web2 supports it a lot better, and works with both HTTP 1.0 keepalive and HTTP 1.1 pipelining and persistent connections. Web2 is not ready for non-developmental use yet, however. The core HTTP protocol layer should be pretty stable at this point, but the layer above still needs work.
