Mailing List Archive: Tornado vs. Cherokee

Not sure if you could directly compare them - Tornado is a framework for
making servers in Python (similar to what Node.js does for JavaScript),
whereas Cherokee is a fully-functional server you can use out-of-the-box.
Tornado's scope is a lot smaller which could *potentially *make it faster
at what it does.
