Thanks a lot all. I am looking into https://github.com/kmike/tornadio , quite interesting .
Main reason i dont want to use websocket due to not standardsized yet and all browsers working (and i can't tell them not to use this browser only this browser) . Yes the problem of only 2 ports can be solved by listening a daemon at 443 but they may want https later. May be i will reverse proxy later.
