Do you have in mind these benchmarks?: play2-scala-slick-ne 60,588 14.3% play2-scala-slick 60,400 14.2% ("-ne" = netty, the other is Akka) There's not that much difference? Or did the Netty version, get slower, because of refactorings done to support Akka? Anyway I too feel frustrated that the Scala / Play Framework developers don't seem to focus so much on performance, but rather (it seems to me) on writing theoretically beautiful Scala code? I'd rather have something fast & simple like Vert.x, in Scala Well, there's Vert.x + Scala, "only" 70 stars: https://github.com/vert-x3/vertx-lang-scala https://github.com/vert-x3/vertx-lang-scala thugh. I wonder how Vert.x + Scala compares with Vert.x + Java, would have been really interesting to include in the benchmarks :- ) I suggested incl Vert.x & Scala in the benchmarks: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/framework-benchmarks/6JwoofFRrOU https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/framewor...
