waitress-serve: Use 4 threads to process requests.
$ waitress-serve --threads=${4} ${import-path:wsgifunc}
try on your machine

This command is using the waitress-serve tool to run a web server that serves a WSGI application.

  • waitress-serve is a command-line tool for serving web applications using the Waitress server, a pure-Python production-quality WSGI server.

  • --threads=${4} is an argument for specifying the number of threads to use for handling incoming requests. ${4} is a placeholder for the value provided when executing the command.

  • ${import-path:wsgifunc} is using a placeholder to define the import path of the WSGI application to be served. ${import-path} is another placeholder, and wsgifunc is the specific module or function to be imported.

So, when executing this command, you would replace ${4} with the desired number of threads, and ${import-path:wsgifunc} with the actual import path or module/function name of the WSGI application you want to serve.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
