Answer 1

Asynchronous servers support much larger numbers of simultaneous client connections. More conventional servers come up against thread and process limits when servicing large number of concurrent clients, particularly those with long-lived connections. Async servers can also provide better performance as they avoid the overheads of e.g. thread context switching.

As well as the Twisted framework, there are also asynchronous server building blocks in Python's standard library: previously asyncore and asynchat, but now also asyncio.
