      oh what machine? with how many workers? doing what? search for "node" on this page: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r21 https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r21

        Express, on Linux, with one worker because that's how you benchmark apples-to-apples. Node 20, with plenty of RAM and CPU, not that it uses it.

        Rather than searching "node" on TechEmpower I do my own comparative benchmarks in a given environment. Node always loses. Every time. To everything. It reliably loses to Java, Python, and even other JavaScript engines. Which is why I asked... performant compared to what?
