WebSocket options for use with Raspberry Pi?

My understanding is that there are 2 main option for implementing websockets on a Pi 1 - Tornado - a light Python based web framework 2 - NodeJS+SocketIO

Pros-cons of each?

Is anyone familiar with either or perhaps can suggest a better alternative?

Actually, a third alternative is too use Java WebSocket (though the use of Java on a Pi can be discussed...)

I'm currently playing around with Tornado - here's where I am up to:

Raspberry Pi and Tornado Websockets Part 1

I've also created the html client but not yet recorded part 2. Feel free to take a look. Part 2 should be there today and I'll be continuing to develop/evolve the code.

Node.js and socket.io is better option because Socket.IO support mobile device and realtime connectivity on every browse.
