gevent is a very simple webserver that wont handle many things that the "real" servers do. One of the main things I'm talking about in this post is load balancing, which gevent (and uwsgi, and gunicorn, etc) don't implement very well. Nginx does a pretty good job at this, in addition to many other things (like buffering). You can definitely get a lot of performance out of a coroutine, async, etc framework, but at the end of the day it's not going to be the entry point to a production application.
