If we had our say, we would have settled for apache+ mod_wsgi.
Client was techie organisation and they felt nginx + uwsgi will perform
better. Our research showed that in a fully dynamic environment it makes no
difference. In a usecase where lot of static (both text/ binary) content get
served, there may be performance gain in nginx + uwsgi.
We just follow the client's directive as both almost had similar
performance.
