Why "worker_processes 4;"? I mean, I get memory constraint, but why not 1 since nginx is event-based?

nginx does blocking I/O, so the only way to mitigate that is to use more worker processes (I happen to run on a Dual CPU Dual Core, so I just use 4).

I don't totally understand how nginx works, though. The idea that it uses blocking I/O and yet each worker can be serving X many requests is confusing as hell to me. That's the extent of the English docs, though.

So I was rebuilding my environment on Mosso, and used this as a template (it worked rather well and was close enough to what I had before.

But I think you forgot an important step... installing Django :)

You can easily use /a/DOMAIN/bin/easy_install for that.

Thanks
