Wasn't intending to start a flame war. Key words were "embedded" and
"no fork(2)" and "persistant database connection". You could in principle
do that in perl as well, in fact I think someone has written a perl
module for Asterisk that does just this, though I may be wrong. The
part about python being more pleasant than perl was just an alliterative
joke, don't take it too seriously.

As Jeremy pointed out, AGI on its own doesn't scale too well due to
overhead of fork(2)ing and making new database connections, etc.
