Interesting to see a high level comparison of languages without a comparison of the important numbers: performance. I know that Java performance is pretty crap on RPis due to the poorer Java ARM support, and I'd imagine that it's largely identical for node. All those millions that went into optimising JS performance can't help if the code generated is hobbled. I've found little evidence to either prove or disprove my view, apart from this fairly devastating graph from a year ago, where a Pi is perhaps 100 times slower than an Intel dual core from nearly a decade ago. http://smartmobilestudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/node.js-benchmark-2.png http://smartmobilestudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/node... I'm not convinced that ARM will be the architecture of the server, except in specialised markets (statistical multiplexing will give a big advantage to the >64 core Xeon servers that are popping up all around the place), but I'm totally convinced that this press piece is not particularly informative.
