Do you happen to know if Flask is supported by any chance?

Yes. I've had a small webapp running under it quite happily (complete overkill, but it's a personal project and I was curious).

Very basic hello world app hosted under gunicorn (just returning the string "hello world", so hopefully this is measuring the framework time). Siege set to do 10k requests, 25 concurrency, running that twice so that they each have a chance to "warm up", the second round (warmed up) results give me:

    pypy   : 8127.44 trans/sec
    cpython: 4512.64 trans/sec

So it seems like there's definitely things that pypy's JIT can do to speed up the Flask underpinnings.
