-"""Async web request example with tornado.
-
-Requests to localhost:8888 will be relayed via 0MQ to a slow responder,
-who will take 1-5 seconds to respond. The tornado app will remain responsive
-duriung this time, and when the worker replies, the web request will finish.
-
-A '.' is printed every 100ms to demonstrate that the zmq request is not blocking
-the event loop.

-ioloop.install() must be called prior to instantiating *any* tornado objects,
-and ideally before importing anything from tornado, just to be safe.
-
-install() sets the singleton instance of tornado.ioloop.IOLoop with zmq's
-IOLoop. If this is not done properly, multiple IOLoop instances may be
-created, which will have the effect of some subset of handlers never being
-called, because only one loop will be running.
