I'd like to see how a fairly straight forward webapp running on different web app frameworks compare. Lets say you write a simple polling app (similar to the Django tutorial example) using Django, Rails, ASP.NET/Mono, and Node.js :-) Write the app to use whatever features you can within the framework but with matching output, perhaps sans caching, and run them all on similar architecture where possible (apache/passenger maybe?) then see how those load tests compare. If nobody else does this than I might, I'd be interested to know what that looks like.
- skorgu 17y agoYeah, I think this would be a great idea. I'd like to see a set of traffic generators that exercise actual functionality not just ab/pageload tests too, that works more of the stack. It should be reasonably easy to automate a deploy/test run in EC2 too, then you could do a big batch of comparisons with configuration changes, different db backends, tuning parameters, etc. Sort of like the programming language shootout but for webapps.
