What is the difference between diesel and gevent ? Note that gevent 1.0 uses libev.

In a nutshell, gevent monkey patches the socket library, whereas diesel doesn't. This means that you can use any (previously) blocking libraries with gevent, whereas, in diesel you have to write them again. The upside of the rewriting is that it creates a more coherent (and opinionated) ecosystem.
