Demo code for my post about python's blocking stream reading functions.
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
from time import sleep
# run the shell as a subprocess:
p = Popen(['python', 'shell.py'],
stdin = PIPE, stdout = PIPE, stderr = PIPE, shell = False)
# issue command:
p.stdin.write('command\n')
# let the shell output the result:
sleep(0.1)

NGINX tuning for best performance

Moved to git repository: https://github.com/denji/nginx-tuning

NGINX Tuning For Best Performance

For this configuration you can use web server you like, i decided, because i work mostly with it to use nginx.

Generally, properly configured nginx can handle up to 400K to 500K requests per second (clustered), most what i saw is 50K to 80K (non-clustered) requests per second and 30% CPU load, course, this was 2 x Intel Xeon with HyperThreading enabled, but it can work without problem on slower machines.

You must understand that this config is used in testing environment and not in production so you will need to find a way to implement most of those features best possible for your servers.

import signal
class InterruptableRegion(object):
def __init__(self, sig=signal.SIGINT):
self.sig = sig
self.interrupted = False
self.released = False
self.original_handler = None
def __enter__(self):

IP Address of Raspberry: 192.168.0.106
IP Address of ubuntu Desktop: 192.168.0.103
IP Address of remote linux server to copy image files: 192.168.0.200
1) On Raspberry pi , run the camera and stream using gstreamer as below:
raspivid -t 0 -w 800 -h 600 -fps 25 -g 5 -b 4000000 -vf -n -o - | gst-launch -v fdsrc ! h264parse ! gdppay ! tcpserversink host=192.168.0.106 port=5000
