My favourite question to ask when seeing benchmark results such as this is “how much latency did you have / inject when running the benchmark”. This tends to lead to interesting conversations and learning. :) One my favourite instances of this was in a benchmark measuring contest with a Golang enthusiast who was surprised to see that with a bit of latency his server was not 3x faster than Node.js like he thought it would be.
