gunicorn behind nginx is a popular config, but usually is to have several gevented processes to bind on a single socket. There are several "workers" available, and I'm not saying that is not useful otherwise, but it's where it shines (and was born for (note the "g")). I'm not counting to continously bash your proposal, but it doesn't seem that gunicorn parameters (and docs) are less intuitive than the one for running a wsgi app inside uwsgi (nor more "stable"). > > Here is what I am going to do: > 1. script (Bash) my config so that it is repeatable.

BTW: Tornado isn't suited AT ALL useful if you plan to run a web2py app in 95% of the cases. > > I do think anyserver.py is a convenient accompaniament to using rocket > locally.
