Is SimpleXMLRPCServer single threaded? [duplicate]

Python XMLRPC with concurrent requests

I'm writing a python application which will act as xml-rpc server, using SimpleXMLRPCServer class.

Now my question is: what happens if 2 or more clients send a request at the same time? Are they queued? Do I have the guarantee that if two clients call the same or different functions they are executed one after another and not at the same time?

Answer 1

I believe the library implementation of SimpleXMLRPCServer is indeed single-threaded. You have to add a mixin to make it serve requests in a multi-threaded way:

from SocketServer import ThreadingMixIn
from SimpleXMLRPCServer import SimpleXMLRPCServer

class MyXMLRPCServer(ThreadingMixIn, SimpleXMLRPCServer):
    """..."""

Answer 2

If you just need your application to process XML-RPC requests (more than one at a time if needed) you may take a look at Pythomnic framework.
