twisted

i want to build a site similar to www.omegle.com. can any one suggest me some ideas. I think its built usning twisted , orbiter comet server. Twisted is a good choice. I used it a few years ago to build a server for a browser-based online game I wrote - it kept track of clients, served them replies to Ajax requests, and used HTML5 Server-Sent DOM Events as well. Worked rather painlessly thanks to Twisted's good HTTP library. For a Python web framework, I personally favor Django. It's quick to get going with it, and it has a lot of functionality out of the box ("batteries included" as it says

All: I'm seeking input/guidance/and design ideas. My goal is to find a lean but reliable way to take XML payload from an HTTP POST (no problems with this part), parse it, and spawn a relatively long-lived process asynchronously. The spawned process is CPU intensive and will last for roughly three minutes. I don't expect much load at first, but there's a definite possibility that I will need to scale this out horizontally across servers as traffic hopefully increases. I really like the Celery/Django stack for this use: it's very intuitive and has all of the built-in framework to accomplish

I'm trying to use Twisted in a sort of spidering program that manages multiple client connections. I'd like to maintain of a pool of about 5 clients working at one time. The functionality of each client is to connect to a specified IRC server that it gets from a list, enter a specific channel, and then save the list of the users in that channel to a database. The problem I'm having is more architectural than anything. I'm fairly new to Twisted and I don't know what options are available for managing multiple clients. I'm assuming the easiest way is to simply have each ClientCreator instance

I have form with file upload. The files to be uploaded actually are pictures and videos, so they can be quite big. I have logic which based on headers and first 1KB can determine if the rest will be processed or immediately rejected. In the later case I'd like to redirect client to error page without having to wait for upload to finish. The case is, that just sending response before POST is complete doesn't seem to work. The redirect gets ignored and if I close connection, browser complains with "Connection reset by peer" error. So the question is: is it even possible to do that in pure HTTP
