I am thinking about writing a load test tool in Python, so I am interested
in how I can create the most concurrent threads/processes with the fewest
OS resources. I would imagine that I/O would need to be non-blocking.
There are a number of options including standard library threading, gevent,
stackless python, cython parallelism etc. Because I am new to Python, I am
unsure on which libraries to choose. I am not really bothered on the tool
chain, just as long as it is Python related (so I'd use PyPy for example).
The locust.io load test tool uses gevent and seems to like it. I do not know
enough to make a recommendation myself, but I believe they use it for the same
reasons you have.
