Hi,

I am new to Quixote and would like to know few things:

Scenario: I have a server which sends TCP requests to my pre-forking python
server running on a remote machine. This preforking server accepts the
requests and process them and send the appropriate reply back to the main
server. I some how feel that the preforking server I am using is not very
scalable as it is not benchmarked and there are no user reviews for it. I am
looking for some other server like Quixote which can handle large number of
requests (like 100/sec). Each request coming from the main server will be
processed by Quixote server and reply will be sent to the main server. (It
doesn't matter if the server is a blocking or non blocking; Important thing
is it should be able to handle large number of requests and there should not
be any HTTP headers etc. It should only send the text what is sent using
sock.send in Python module.)

Could you please explain how to achieve this task using Quixote?

Thanks in advance

VKM
