That version of web.py has little relation to the one that Aaron wrote. The current version looks pretty good but I have no idea what it's scalability and modularity story is.

As a slight aside, what do you usually do to stress test a new framework to see if it's scalable?

Ask the community. :)

That's a little glib, but basically I ask other people with experience. You can throw as much fake traffic as you want at a framework but there is nothing like a real world test.
