Open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web server and tools that power FriendFeed
Tornado is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web server and tools that power FriendFeed. The FriendFeed application is written using a web framework that looks a bit like web.py or Google's webapp, but with additional tools and optimizations to take advantage of the underlying non-blocking infrastructure.
The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks (and certainly most Python frameworks) because it is non-blocking and reasonably fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll, it can handle thousands of simultaneous standing connections, which means it is ideal for real-time web services. We built the web server specifically to handle FriendFeed's real-time features — every active user of FriendFeed maintains an open connection to the FriendFeed servers. (For more information on scaling servers to support thousands of clients, see The C10K problem.)

Revision 70 (latest revision is 128)
- Update to version 4.5.3 + tornado.curl_httpclient * Improved debug logging on Python 3. + tornado.httpserver * ``Content-Length`` and ``Transfer-Encoding`` headers are no longer sent with 1xx or 204 responses (this was already true of 304 responses). * Reading chunked requests no longer leaves the connection in a broken state. + tornado.iostream * Writing a `memoryview` can no longer result in "BufferError: Existing exports of data: object cannot be re-sized". + tornado.options * Duplicate option names are now detected properly whether they use hyphens or underscores. + tornado.testing * `.AsyncHTTPTestCase.fetch` now uses ``127.0.0.1`` instead of ``localhost``, improving compatibility with systems that have partially-working ipv6 stacks. + tornado.web * It is no longer allowed to send a body with 1xx or 204 responses. + tornado.websocket * Requests with invalid websocket headers now get a response with status code 400 instead of a closed connection.
