Is Flower single threaded?

[Pasquale Puzio]

Hi,

I was wondering whether Flower is single threaded or not and, if it is, how to make it multi threaded.

This is very important to us as we use Flower HTTP API to create tasks remotely and sometimes there might be tens or even hundreds of "simultaneous" requests which, if not processed in parallel, might slow down the system.

Thanks

Hi all, after some more investigation, being Flower based on Tornado, looks like the only way to make it able to process multiple requests at the same time is to create multiple processes and put them behind a load balancer. This is what we did by leveraging Nginx and it's working just fine.
