I've run python progs with 1000+ threads and it's fine. 10k might be harder. Async is overrated. Erlang and elixir are preferable.

overrated or not the choice is between sync or async drivers. Actually there is no choice, just an illusion of choice.

So async or async ... choose. Without the web router running multithreaded, concurrency will have minimal effect. But everything is step by step. freethreaded hasn't been out for very long.

Only reliable web server is an Erlang web server.
