nginx + gunicorn + web.py

[Umut Aydin]

Hello everyone,

As you can see in configuration, we have nginx servers (there are 2 of
them) as reverse proxy which keep requests balanced for 6 gunicorn
application(web.py framework) nodes.

In python part, we calculate execution time and we know that application
part completes in ~0.02 sec per request but it takes 60-300 milliseconds to
see it on browser in the beginning which is acceptable for us.

In time (~20-30 minutes), active connection number increases to 1000+ from
300+. Our python application still completes in ~0.02 sec but it takes
sometimes even 30 seconds to see it on browser.

*/nginx_status*
Active connections: 361
server accepts handled requests
 71644 71644 195385
Reading: 0 Writing: 13 Waiting: 348

*Gunicorn: *http://pastebin.com/CY8m922F
*Nginx:* http://pastebin.com/7bx5H33Q

Do you have any idea?

On the other hand; is that feasible way to deliver a web.py application?

Thanks.
