How many concurrent requests can a web2py instance handle?

[nethu...@gmail.com]

I know this is probably not a specific web2py issue, but rather a WSGI one. I am somewhat confused. However, this is not the largely discussed "Does web2py scale?" question.

I am wondering if a single web2py instance can handle two or more requests concurrently, or if two users access to the site at the same time, then one request is queued up?

I am deploying a site in PythonAnywhere for a small business, with 4 web workers. I guess that means 4 web2py processes and that the webserver will dispatch incoming requests to one idle process of those four?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply but those benchmarks don't answer my question.

One request at a time per thread or process made available by the web server.

Then one web2py instance can only handle one request, that's right?

I believe that is how Pythonanywhere works, but you might want to confirm with them.
