I’ve largely enjoyed gunicorn. What do you dislike about it?

I largely agree here that of all the components in a stack, unicorn seems to be the least troublesome and almost invisible.

I have never had a problem that I would have traced back to gunicorn not working ...

On the other hand not having to run gunicorn as another separate service might be an advantage.

Oh nothing really, it's just another cog is all. I'm running nginx because there's some things I want to serve statically (and it does a couple of other boring tasks really well too), so if I could just point it at the environment and tell it to go for it then it would just be a bit less messing around.

I'm connecting nginx to gunicorn through a unix socket too and found that to be a bit of a pain.
