[Fixed]-Python raven timing out when using django logging from a celery worker

If you’re using the default Celery worker model things should generally just work. If you’re using something else that may be less true.

The Python client by default uses a threaded worker. Meaning, upon instantiation, it creates a queue and a thread to process messages asynchronously. If this happens in various ways it could cause problems (i.e. pre-fork), or if you’re using something like gevent and not patching threads.

You can try changing the transport to be synchronous to confirm this is related:
