How did you find gevent and totally miss Twisted, which is linked on the front page of nodejs.org?

There are a handful of frameworks that assume every request is fully concurrent and non-blocking. Twisted-based stuff is the most prevalent, for Python, like Nevow, Athena, and the stuff baked into twisted.web. However, WSGI itself doesn't say anything about the concurrency of individual requests, and it's totally possible for WSGI requests to be multithreaded, multiprocess, or otherwise concurrent.
