Tornado is actually very Pythonic and has a very well written and modern code base. I think "tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.instance().start()" is the way it is in order to let you use multiple IO loops in different threads but I can't think of other places where such an idiom is used. What one might find a little Java-esque at a first glance is Twisted, because of zope.interface and the camelCase notation, but definitively not Tornado. -- Giampaolo - http://grodola.blogspot.com
