Performance of asycore.py / BaseHTTPServer

[Thomas Weholt]

Hi,

I'm thinking of writing a SOAP-server using asyncore or BaseHTTPServer. What
kind of performance could I expect? Compared to implementing something using
Apache/mod_python, Zope, webware or any other freely available
webserver-framework?? How will the standard modules included in Python
perform under heavy load, ie. lots of concurrent users? Would the size of
the response slow the server down?

Benchmarks would be nice.
