This is comparing nodejs with Ruby's EventMachine, so where do threads enter the picture? It's been a while since I looked at EM, but if I remember correctly, it's pretty much in the same area as Python's Twisted or node.js, as opposed to something like plain ol' Java threads or Erlang.
- stock_toaster 15y agoI don't actually even see eventmachine in there, aside from a remark about having tried it in the opening introduction. Seems it is just comparing node with sinatra+mongomapper running under thin or unicorn. Based on the title I assumed it was something like goliath or sinatra/async with rainbows!/thin. Looking at the git repo linked in the article though, I don't believe that is the case.
