Does Spyne (python web service framework) support multiple threads? If not, is there a way to do using the Python Thread Library?

Due to interoperability, I need to deploy an application as a web service. I'm using Spyne (http://spyne.io/) to do that, a python framework for ws. So far so good.

However, the service will receive several requests at once. Hence, I need to increase perfomance, since the request does several I/O (database, file) tasks.

The following code exemplifie a basic web service in Spyne. Based on that, does Spyne support a thread pool or threading? How can I activate or wrap the service in multiple threads? If not possible, how can I achieve that with Python threading library?

Thanks in advance.

from spyne import Application, rpc, ServiceBase, Integer
from spyne.protocol.soap import Soap11
from spyne.server.wsgi import WsgiApplication

class HelloWorldService(ServiceBase):
    @rpc(Integer, Integer, _returns=Integer)
    def multiply(ctx, a, b):
        return a * b

application = Application([HelloWorldService],
    tns='spyne.multiply',
    in_protocol=Soap11(validator='lxml'),
    out_protocol=Soap11()
)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    # You can use any Wsgi server. Here, we chose
    # Python's built-in wsgi server but you're not
    # supposed to use it in production.
    from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
    wsgi_app = WsgiApplication(application)
    server = make_server('0.0.0.0', 8000, wsgi_app)
    server.serve_forever()

Spyne works with both blocking/async code in single-threaded or multithreaded settings.

If you need to do concurrency with multiple threads, use a WSGI server capable of handling multiple threads, like CherryPy, Twisted, mod_wsgi, etc. The WSGI reference implementation that you use in the code sample (wsgiref) does not support concurrency.

If you need to do concurrency with async method calls, use Twisted.
