Ah, interesting! Thanks for tracking that down. In chat we basically discovered that the intercontinental latency and shoddy wifi connections were responsible for a lot of the confusion.
Testing from a US-based fiber connection, we got results of ~40ms in both scenarios. --- https://arb9clq9k9.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/unicode/json_example/ ping statistics --- 16 connects, 16 ok, 0.00% failed, time 15989ms round-trip min/avg/max = 32.7/42.3/142.4 ms So, there you have it! As if you needed more of a reason to get down with Zappa?! :-D (Now, that's with a naive-example. Expect this thread to get bumped when we start really hitting the databases..) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
