>>>Chicago Boss is fully asynchronous, using one single process to handle hundreds or thousands of simultaneous requests<<<

>>>All other web frameworks will break down and cry if you ask them to process more than a few dozen simultaneous requests on a single machine.<<<<

Isn't this what facebook Tornado, Orbited and all the other servers using select()/epoll() solves?

Erlang's whole I/O and scheduling model is optimized for this design in a way that Python's simply isn't.
