The concurrent Haskell programming model is vastly nicer. Twisted is
entirely event-driven, so it's nearly as far from a comfortable
environment as you might hope to stretch. I can't speak to their
respective performance strengths. However, I've done quite a bit of
concurrent networking with lightweight coroutines in Python
(greenlet), and its performance is nothing to write home about.
