Python web framework suggestion for a web service
I'm gonna write a web service which will allow upload/download of files, managing permissions and users. It will be the interface to which a Desktop app or Mobile App will communicate. I was wondering which of the web frameworks I should use to to that?

It is a sort of remote storage for media files.

I am going to host the web service on EC2 in a Linux environment. It should be fast (obviously) because It will have to handle tens of requests per second, transferring lots of data (GBs)... Communication will be done using JSon... But how to deal with binary data? If I use base64, it will grow by 33%...

I think web2py should be ok, because it is very stable and mature project, but wanted other suggestions before choosing.

Thank you.
