Glossary
- harakiri
- A feature of uWSGI that aborts workers that are serving requests for an
excessively long time. Configured using the harakiri family of
options. Every request that will take longer than the seconds specified
in the harakiri timeout will be dropped and the corresponding worker
recycled.
- master
- uWSGI’s built-in prefork+threading multi-worker management mode,
activated by flicking the master switch on. For all practical serving
deployments it’s not really a good idea not to use master mode.
