gevent vs LiteSpeed: What are the differences?

What is gevent? Coroutine network library for Python. It is a coroutine -based Python networking library that uses greenlet to provide a high-level synchronous API on top of the libev or libuv event loop.

What is LiteSpeed? *A drop-in Apache replacement and the leading high-performance, high-scalability server *. It is a drop-in Apache replacement and the leading high-performance, high-scalability server. You can replace your existing Apache server with it without changing your configuration or operating system details. As a drop-in replacement, it allows you to quickly eliminate Apache bottlenecks in 15 minutes with zero downtime.

gevent and LiteSpeed can be categorized as "Web Servers" tools.

Some of the features offered by gevent are:

  • Fast event loop based on libev or libuv
  • Lightweight execution units based on greenlets
  • API that re-uses concepts from the Python standard library (for examples there are events and queues)

On the other hand, LiteSpeed provides the following key features:

  • Event Driven Architecture
  • Apache Drop-In Replacement
  • HTTP/2 & QUIC Support

    What are some alternatives to gevent and LiteSpeed?
    asyncio
    This module provides infrastructure for writing single-threaded concurrent code using coroutines, multiplexing I/O access over sockets and other resources, running network clients and servers, and other related primitives.
    Gunicorn
    Gunicorn is a pre-fork worker model ported from Ruby's Unicorn project. The Gunicorn server is broadly compatible with various web frameworks, simply implemented, light on server resources, and fairly speedy.
    Tornado
    By using non-blocking network I/O, Tornado can scale to tens of thousands of open connections, making it ideal for long polling, WebSockets, and other applications that require a long-lived connection to each user.
    Twisted
    Twisted is an event-driven networking engine written in Python and licensed under the open source ​MIT license. Twisted runs on Python 2 and an ever growing subset also works with Python 3. Twisted also supports many common network protocols, including SMTP, POP3, IMAP, SSHv2, and DNS.
    Celery
    Celery is an asynchronous task queue/job queue based on distributed message passing. It is focused on real-time operation, but supports scheduling as well.
