If you don't need many active processes that can serve the http 
requests, you can give a look at my WSGI implementation for the Nginx 
server.

http://hg.mperillo.ath.cx/nginx/mod_wsgi/

It's still experimental, but some people are starting to use it.


Nginx is an asynchronous server, with multiple process support (but only 
a fixed number of worker processes are executed).



By the way: I have implemented some extensions for supporting 
asynchronous applications, and I'm testing them with the asynchronous 
API of psycopg2.
