The PWS is definitely meant for more than just Swikis. Bolot Kerimbaev has been undertaking an extensive rewrite of the innards of the PWS, and is getting some very nice performance numbers for just plain uploads and downloads.
Mark, is Bolot using or planning on using Craig Latta's Correspondent's framework? I've just started playing with it and it is *very* interesting. Perhaps the most obvious benefit up front is that it supports Berkeley socket semantics which, I understand, will eliminate the simultaneous access problem.
