Not only do I like understanding my tools, I build my own tools. I find abstractions and go after them whenever possible. There is always an upfront cost to this but the end result is a cleaner system. The understand-your-tools side build

For some reason my other account is blocked from responding so I created this one. That is correct about pymongo. Eventlet will convert any drivers that are written entirely in Python into nonblocking driver. Gevent, an alternative to event
