Best news i've heard about django recently. This will undoubtedly make many 'testing obsessive' developers very happy, not only from a performance view but from a django feature set view as well.
Awesome, maybe now I can practically run my tests against Postgres when I'm developing instead of against sqlite. Will be nice to avoid the (admittedly very occasional) works-on-sqlite-but-not-on-postgres problems.
They should consider a Fake database for the tests that happen to use a database rather than testing the database. Hopefully that's a majority of them.
Awesome news... especially since since NewsCred is about to migrate to 100% Django! So far it's been a great experience for all our developers.
Anyone out there with a django test suite, I'd love to hear some other performance benchmarks in the comments.
