I'm developing a mod_wsgi module for Nginx (http://www.nginx.net). Nginx is a very fast asynchronous and multiprocess web server. The development is still in alpha status: http://hg.mperillo.ath.cx/nginx/mod_wsgi/ If your application is not I/O bound mod_wsgi for nginx can be a good solution, otherwise you should look for mod_wsgi for Apache.
