Also I know the JVM crowd hates to admit it, but also Node.js. I was able to do 15k rps to our node API (which hit Postgres) on the last application I worked on

Also I know the JVM crowd hates to admit it, but also Node.js. I was able to do 15k rps to our node API (which hit Postgres) on the last application I worked on. And that wasn't even on SSD. Node can be very fast on your own hardware. That was on a 2 server Xeon setup.
- bhauer 13y agoIndeed; you're right! It's an oversight to have left Node.js off my list above.

- antihero 13y agoFrom what I've toyed around with, Twisted and Tornado with PyPy have comparable speeds to Node.JS, too.
