multiple thread problem

[recognosco]

i am trying to run a simple web.py based application on an embedded device, and the main reason behind choosing web.py was its size. an 89K web framework is pretty difficult to beat. anyhow, now that the application is up and running (i am just using the built-in server) - it seems that the app is opening a new thread everytime i refresh the index page. i have tried turning multi-threading off by setting 'wsgi.multithread' to 0 on line 41 in httpserver.py but that didn't help my cause. my question is - what might be the reason for such behaviour and is there any other option i have to change?

thanks in advance!
