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 24 (latest revision is 128)
- Update to 2.4.1: - Fixed a memory leak in tornado.stack_context that was especially likely with long-running @gen.engine functions. - tornado.auth.TwitterMixin now works on Python 3. - Fixed a bug in which IOStream.read_until_close with a streaming callback would sometimes pass the last chunk of data to the final callback instead of the streaming callback. - Update to 2.4.1: - Fixed a memory leak in tornado.stack_context that was especially likely with long-running @gen.engine functions. - tornado.auth.TwitterMixin now works on Python 3. - Fixed a bug in which IOStream.read_until_close with a streaming callback would sometimes pass the last chunk of data to the final callback instead of the streaming callback.
