obsessing about bdb, queues

So my nightmares do no cease to end, still debating queue solutions and databases. After spending a lot of time thinking about how to handle 100 million entries , concurrency and a lot of jazz here are some conclusions that I have reached.

  • Tokyo Tyrant needs some testing personally. Can it work well within a constrained VPS ? I doubt that after reading all the test results. So need to do a benchmark for this.
  • Tornado , the friendfeed (facebook) non-blocking server looks cool. The primary issues are the lack of an plugin architecture much like django or rails, guess that is something i can give back to them (if and when i start working on it).
  • Python set lookups are blazing fast, in a benchmark today it beat lists lookup (800000 entries) by 10 times

Feeling much better after the flu, I hope to write more often so that the ether (ie the internet) can crawl and archive my existence ;) .
