What turned me off (at least the last time I looked) was the project setup. Or the lack thereof, as it seemed like the whole "application" was intrinsically mixed in to the nginx configuration. It seemed more like a way to write nginx plugins than your usual webapps. If I'd see a way to do a more WSGI/Plack/Rack-like setup, I'd probably look again. Performance seems very nice, and while not my favorite language, it's certainly more sane than Javascript...
