<p><strong><a href="http://superjared.com/entry/quick-django-benching/">Quick Django Benching</a></strong></p> Django under Apache/mod_python outperforms nginx/FastCGI and LightTPD/FastCGI once you ramp up the concurrency levels. My setup for this site (Apache/mod_python behind an nginx proxy, with nginx handling static files) should give the best of both worlds. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/apache">apache</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/deployment">deployment</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/django">django</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/fastcgi">fastcgi</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/lighttpd">lighttpd</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/modpython">modpython</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/nginx">nginx</a></p>
