I agree that py4web would give much better performance.

Do you know anything else about the application?  Does it use SQLAlchemy?

If the codebase isn't that large, converting to web2py and py4web wouldn't 
be terrible.

While I'd do it in py4web, auth in Flask isn't that hard. I'd recommend the 
Flask book by Grinberg or Corey Schafer's youtube videos to learn more 
about it.
