How does that compare to aiohttp? What are the benefits?
I'm not sure I understand the question, are you interested in comparing tornado and aiohttp?
aio isn't available for py2. The benefit is that this is available for py2.
There is https://github.com/vstinner/trollius for vanilla Python2.
trollius is no longer maintained
It's still a reasonable starting place for anyone wanting asyncio on vanilla Python2. Outside of vanilla Python2, Tauthon also has some tracking issues for the language extensions and libraries needed for a backport of asyncio to Tauthon.[0]
