I' ve got apache 2.0.48 and quixote 0.7a3 with scgi
1.2a1 and Python 2.3.3.

Quixote works fine, but when I stress it with "ab" , I
receive timeouts.

This is repeatable on a page that transforms an xml to
html. I do :
"
def my_bookmarks [html] (req):
    common.header()
    common.menu()
    "
My bookmarks
"
    r=StringIO.StringIO()
    xbelmark.analyze(r,str('/home/vi/bookmark.xml'))
    "
"
    htmltext(r.getvalue())
    r.close()
    "
"
    common.footer(str('%c'))
"

On the other page (pure ptl pages) I've not the
problem.


Here after the result of ab -c1 -n100 :

Does this is linked with the GIL in python ?
How to solve this ?



Thanks
