Probably because the testers aren't experts in all frameworks and languages and deployment options, and don't have infinite time and resources to try all combinations of options to test stuff. Maybe suggest some updates to the people doing the benchmarking. Or, god forbid, do the testing yourself and post some results for people.

  Looking through all your comments, I see one vein of similarity between a majority of your words: you're especially, unnecessarily, and consistently impolite. Please, a little internet civility. My question was merely curiosity, and I'm (gasp) well aware that the testers at techempower don't possess infinite time or resources. Your reply was useless and in no way appropriate. Have a bit of respect for yourself.

    Ok? You wanted to know why they didn't test whatever you thought was the optimal setup for your use case, and the answer should've been obvious - there's dozens of frameworks across multiple languages and OS platforms. If you look around on this thread and those for previous iterations of the benchmarks, a consistent response from the benchmarkers is that they didn't test some specific scenario because they lack the expertise to do so. The tests are on github. Go write one that suits you and send a pull request, or, god forbid, do it yourself and make a post about it on HN and get yourself some karma. But as it stands, your post was lazy and trivial. I've said similarly dumb things in the past, gotten downvoted or called out, and we all moved on. I'm sorry your fee-fees got hurt because you said something dumb, and I pointed it out in terms that failed to indicate respect for you. I upvoted your response as a gesture of love and understanding.
