Django and it's server
Knapp
The first thing on the table is what server to run. Currently that is
lighttpd but Apache is a second but slower on my computer option.
What does everyone think?
I also wanted to say that servers and networking are one of my weaker
areas of computer expertise. I have done most of my computer work with
graphics programming and game design, and computer art.

What is the advantage of having two servers? Why not just one or the
other? It would seem to me that having two would use more memory and
more CPU.

the core django developers recommend separating django from media.
For django the most efficient option is apache/mod_python and for
media lighty. I have a feeling that this site would be media-heavy
with a lot of images. We could have apache for both - with mod_python
for django and without for media, but I think in terms of memory and
CPU the first option is better.
