# norootforbuild Name: python-tornado Version: 0.1 Release: 1 Summary: Open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web server and tools that power FriendFeed License: Apache 2.0 Group: Development/Libraries/Python Source: tornado-%{version}.tar.gz URL: http://www.tornadoweb.org BuildRequires: python-devel, python-setuptools BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-build Requires: python-curl, python-simplejson %{py_requires} %description Tornado is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web server and tools that power FriendFeed. The FriendFeed application is written using a web framework that looks a bit like web.py or Google's webapp, but with additional tools and optimizations to take advantage of the underlying non-blocking infrastructure. The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks (and certainly most Python frameworks) because it is non-blocking and reasonably fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll, it can handle thousands of simultaneous standing connections, which means it is ideal for real-time web services. We built the web server specifically to handle FriendFeed's real-time features — every active user of FriendFeed maintains an open connection to the FriendFeed servers. (For more information on scaling servers to support thousands of clients, see The C10K problem.)
