Hello Massimo, 

Since web2py is very very slow (according to a benchmark I've seen), I'm 
interested in moving to py4web but I'm not sure how to handle the 
transition.

My web2py app is used as a service layer communicating with the JavaScript 
frontend via json-rpc.
It uses web2py JWT tokens for auth.

How can I handle the same architecture in py4web?
