I'm trying to create a GUI framework that will have an event-loop. some threads to handle the UI and some for event handling. I've searched a little bit and found these three libraries and I'm wondering which one is better to use? what are the pros and cons?
I could use one of these three library or even create something for myself by using python threads, or concurrent library.
I would appreciate sharing any kind of experience, benchmark and comparison.

gevent is a coroutine-based cooperative multitasking python framework that relies on monkey patching to make all code cooperative. Gevent actually draws its lineage from Eve Online which was implemented using Stackless Python which eventually evolved into eventlet which inspired gevent.
gevent is a coroutine -based Python networking library that uses greenlet to provide a high-level synchronous API on top of the libev or libuv event loop. Features include: Fast event loop based on libev or libuv. Lightweight execution units based on greenlets.
Gevent is the use of simple, sequential programming in python to achieve scalability provided by asynchronous IO and lightweight multi-threading (as opposed to the callback-style of programming using Twisted's Deferred).
Greenlets are lightweight thread-like structures that are scheduled and managed inside the process. They are references to the part of the stack that is used by the thread. Compared to POSIX threads (pthreads), there is no stack allocated up front and there is only as much stack as is actually used by the greenlet.
threading module if your application doesn't need hundreds or more threads.
