Hi Vitaly.

If you want to run two servers in the same process, simply start the
servers using start (not serve_forever) and wait on the two greenlet
objects you get back. You will have to take care that when one of them
terminates the other one terminates too, or else you may end up with
only one server running.

Re: tornado, it uses its own event loop based around the same apis that
gevent uses but at a much lower level. In theory you might be able to
make it work with greenlets, but you may end up recreating gevent :)

I am wondering why two processes are not a good model?
