Async spawing of processes: design question - Celery or Twisted | 4,635,379 | 5 | 6 | 1,689 | 0 | python,django,asynchronous,twisted | On my system, RabbitMQ running with pretty reasonable defaults is using about 2MB of RAM. Celeryd uses a bit more, but not an excessive amount.
In my opinion, the overhead of RabbitMQ and celery are pretty much negligible compared to the rest of the stack. If you're processing jobs that are going to take several minut... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 2011-01-08T17:08:00.000 | 3 | 1.2 | true | 4,635,033 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 2 | All: I'm seeking input/guidance/and design ideas.

Async spawing of processes: design question - Celery or Twisted | 4,635,409 | 0 | 6 | 1,689 | 0 | python,django,asynchronous,twisted | I'll answer this question as though I was the one doing the project and hopefully that might give you some insight.
I'm working on a project that will require the use of a queue, a web server for the public facing web application and several job clients.
The idea is to have the web server continuously running (no need ... | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 2011-01-08T17:08:00.000 | 3 | 0 | false | 4,635,033 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 2 | All: I'm seeking input/guidance/and design ideas.

PHP or Python for Image Processing? | 4,641,208 | 1 | 3 | 2,343 | 0 | php,python,image,image-processing,image-manipulation | Possibly neither; it depends on what you want to do.
Both PHP and Python are scripting languages, and are therefore not suited for high-performance numerical routines (which most image processing requires). However, they both have a number of image-processing libraries available for them, the innards of which are prob... | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 2011-01-09T19:19:00.000 | 5 | 0.039979 | false | 4,641,187 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 4 | I am writing an application for image processing. I am just wondering which programming language would be the best fit. Python or PHP. This process is system based not web based so I am just thinking if Python could be of more help.

PHP or Python for Image Processing? | 4,641,228 | 2 | 3 | 2,343 | 0 | php,python,image,image-processing,image-manipulation | One cannot suggest much without knowing the kind of image processing you have in mind.
If you just want to do some generic rotate/resize/etc then I guess there isn't much difference.
If you want to do something more complex, then study the libraries and decide which fits best for your particular task.

PHP or Python for Image Processing? | 4,641,242 | 0 | 3 | 2,343 | 0 | php,python,image,image-processing,image-manipulation | It really depends on what you want to do with the images. You probably should just use a batch or similar script to run a command that does the processing your looking for.
Between the two languages, I would go with python.
