SimpleXMLRPCServer performance issue in MSWin

[danu kusmana]

I have sent these scripts on my first email before,
but I send it again. The ServerTest.py is the server
side script that when it is ran on Windows platform it
run very much slower compared when it ran on Linux
platform. I cannot send the captured of the log from
Windows, but I assume you can help me test it so you
can see the different. 

The ClientTest.py is the client script that can access
the server.

These scripts is for my thesis about distributed
system by finding prime numbers.

I hope you can help me to explain what causes the
server script run slower in Windows platform.

ServerTest.py:

#! /usr/bin/env python

import SocketServer
from SimpleXMLRPCServer import * 
import xmlrpclib

class Metode:
	def __init__(self):
		self.nilai = 0
		
	def ambil(self):
		self.nilai += 1
		return self.nilai

	def terima(self, NilaiBaru):
		return xmlrpclib.True

class ServerTest(SocketServer.ThreadingMixIn,
SimpleXMLRPCServer):
	pass

server = ServerTest(('192.168.1.108', 7777))
server.register_instance(Metode())
server.serve_forever() 

ClientTest.py:

#! /usr/bin/env python

import xmlrpclib

BilPrima = 0
conn = xmlrpclib.Server("http://192.168.1.108:7777")

def prima(x):
	global BilPrima
	for TestFactor in range(2, x):
		if (x % TestFactor == 0):
			break
		elif (TestFactor != x - 1):
			continue
		else:
			BilPrima = x
			return BilPrima

while(1):
	nilai = conn.ambil()
	if nilai <= 1000000:
		temp = prima(nilai)
		if temp == None:
			continue
		else:
			print temp
			conn.terima(temp)
	else:
		break
