Django development server CPU intensive - how to analyse?
FWIW, you should do the profiling, but when you do I'll bet you find that the answer is "polling for changes to your files so it can auto-reload." You might do a quick test with "python manage.py runserver --noreload" and see how that affects the CPU usage.
I'm noticing that my django development server (version 1.1.1) on my local windows7 machine is using a lot of CPU (~30%, according to task manager's python.exe entry), even in idle state, i.e. no request coming in/going out. Is there an established way of analysing what might be responsible for this?
Thanks!
