Its not a high traffic site, but I'm running a app that served average of 5 req/s with Mongrel2 + wsgid + MySQL + django and thats working pretty well.
Also, the benchmark of Python web servers that gets linked everywhere (http://nichol.as/benchmark-of-python-web-servers) is getting old. I'm planning on doing a new benchmark, probably this coming weekend. As of now, I'm planning to test gunicorn, uWSGI, tornado, bjoern, eventlet, and gevent over HTTP, flup over FCGI, and uWSGI and wsgid over zeroMQ (behind Mongrel2). Thinking of it, I probably need to put all of the HTTP servers behind nginx for a more fair comparison. Am I forgetting any servers that people would like to see benchmarked?
