@tonybaloney showing off a Flask app running in Hypercorn by @pgjones with workers in subinterpreters that themselves each have the GIL disabled. Running parallel requests that themselves can have parallel processing. This talk has so much insight into web app and parallel performance. #PyConUS #Flask #Python

Quart-Rate-Limiter 0.10.0 released. This release adds the ability to skip limits based on the results of a custom skip_function e.g. to have limits that only apply to unauthenticated requests. See docs https://quart-rate-limiter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/how_to_guides/skip.html and the changelog https://github.com/pgjones/quart-rate-limiter/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst and

Trying to figure out what package to use for showing an async HTTP request in a Python example. Ideally we'd use something in stdlib, but urllib says to use requests, and requests doesn't support async, so... httpx?

Quart-DB, 0.8.0, now supports background migrations - migrations that run whilst the app is serving requests. These are most useful for data migrations that take too long to be run as part of the app startup.

urllib3, #Python's most-used HTTP client library, is fundraising to add HTTP/2 support and ensure long-term sustainability of the project.

Retoots and shares are appreciated 🙏

New Blog Post! Running Python Parallel Applications with Sub Interpreters. What is a sub interpreter? What does this have to do with No-GIL? What use is this? Can I use it for web apps? This and more questions answered. https://tonybaloney.github.io/posts/sub-interpreter-web-workers.html #python #django #flask #fastapi

Since one blocker for HTTP/2 support in urllib3 is our test server not supporting it, I've experimented with Hypercorn and Quart-Trio! https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/pull/3190

Tested my Hypercorn sub interpreter wrapper with Flask and FastAPI. Can't get Django run yet, but working on it.
https://gist.github.com/tonybaloney/98d16f330e8e75ab028037201f91a670 able to get better performance than a normal 4-worker server using multiprocessing. Not sharing benchmarks yet.

Baby steps, but just got a build of CPython 3.13a1 with "free-threading", aka the "No GIL" fork working with a multithreaded HTTP network server that runs each request inside a PEP554 sub interpreter via communication channel. Now I need to get the sub interpreters to load and start an ASGI app, then we'll have a parallel, no-GIL ASGI HTTP server to test!

I have a lot of things I want to write about, that I think others would find insightful. I still don't have a blog. I need to make a blog, but it's yet another project on my long todo list. I love open source, but sometimes the drama really makes it hard to balance with my job and life. I wish it were all easier.
