I've been talking back and forth with Patrick O'Brien about various Pythonic things - mainly PyPersyst and Pyro vs Twisted.

I've just managed to get PyPersyst out of CVS on SourceForge. Everything on SF seems really really slow lately. You get what you pay for I guess.

On his suggestion (which came from weird inexplicable bugs with Pyro) - I've been taking the dive into Twisted's Perspective Broker APIs. At a first glance - PB looks kind of clunky. All remote method calls need to use string method names like:


perspective.callRemote("someRemoteMethod").addCallbacks(...)


This just seems a little awkward to me. Maybe after I get comfortable with all the niggly details I'll write up a dynamic proxy to handle this stuff for me, but I can't imagine that I'm the only one that thinks this way.

I'm an idiot. Of course it has to be this way - how else would I get my asynchronous processing.

I need to save my posts for a minute or two before I publish. Bah..
