I was excited too, never thought that tornado runs on Windows, where no epoll/kqueue is available. However, I'm ok with having a "normal" webserver (performance-wise, I expect to be at least fast as rocket/cherrypy) on Windows but a speedup under Linux, then I bumped into this
https://github.com/rpedroso/motor/blob/master/motor.py#L596 No Windows support for fork! Additionally, has the "tornado team" adopted fully the idea of supporting tornado under Windows ?
