The problem is that actix-web (at the time, at least) was also quite benchmark-oriented -- it was doing a lot of things you don't necessarily want to do in production in order to get better benchmarks.
And that was especially true of the benchmark code itself.
TechEmpower's methodology, additionally, is not perfect. IIRC they support HTTP 1.0 only, which is not what most modern servers are focusing on, but actix-web did.
