Putting the Lock with similiar tools into a module I think ...
class DeferredQueue:
MAX_REQUESTS = 20
You twisted guys have a way of coding stuff that makes me go cross-eyed :) You're right - it is a bit different. DeferredQueue takes a known amount of work you've got to get through and feeds it out at a controlled rate - the modified Itamar's Lock is a similiar control but accepts spontaneous requests for work. I think the following would work similiar to yours Chris ? .. dnsRequest_Semaphore = Semaphore(20) for (sink, input) in source : dnsRequest_Semaphore.run( request, input ).addCallback( sink ) ???? is that right - still getting a handle on defers :) :( the above doesn't cover the error handling you are doing though .. I can't quite work out that bit ... Andy.
