bjoern: Fast And Ultra-Lightweight Asynchronous HTTP/1.1 WSGI Server

A screamingly fast, ultra-lightweight asynchronous WSGI server for CPython, written in C using Marc Lehmann's high performance libev event loop and Ryan Dahl's http-parser_.

Why It's Cool

bjoern is the fastest, smallest and most lightweight WSGI server out there, featuring

~ 1000 lines of C code
Memory footprint ~ 600KB
Single-threaded and without coroutines or other crap
Full persistent connection ("keep-alive") support in both HTTP/1.0 and 1.1, including support for HTTP/1.1 chunked responses

Installation

libev

Arch Linux: pacman -S libev
Ubuntu: apt-get install libev-dev
