While I find this research fascinating, and some of the findings conflict with the point I am about to make, I nevertheless want to object to the selection of Snowden-NSA as the particular topic used as the basis of this research. Although

Precisely. I respect Neya's point of view, but I interpret it as not specifically about Rails or other specific frameworks, but rather as a cautionary tale warning against needless branching out and exploration of other languages an

As an Atari ST user from 1985 to roughly 1993, I wasn't expecting the author would actually mention GEM/TOS. I was pleasantly surprised when I scrolled down and, lo, there it is. That said, since the "X" in this case is

This is a good point. It's true that for the high-performance frameworks and platforms, the database is the bottleneck. Or, more accurately—considering the trivial query and small payload—the overhead of the database driver and the w

I'd like to add one caveat with respect to our C# tests: we did not run the tests on Windows in Round 9. With the help of contributors, we've recently revamped our benchmark toolset, and have yet to pull the Windows implementatio

Ah, but it's not a 1909-S V.D.B., which would have been the real big money option.

Black is a bit stark, but I prefer it to white by a long margin. It's easier on the eyes. Thanks to the advent of high-DPI displays on mobile devices, dark backgrounds with light fonts are more acceptable than they have been in the pa

> Node has always had a problem with favoring performance over robustness I don't disagree with the gist of what you're saying, and I think you're correct. But the premise of Node being high-performance is perhaps more

It's a bit amusing that "why is Java so slow" is in there. I have to think that's coming from people who are familiar with Java from the horrible Java browser plug-in rather than server-side Java.

With Dart 1.5 announced, I am interested in ensuring that Round 10 includes 1.5. I just posted a question [1] to our most active Dart test contributor: does the >= 1.3.0 specified in the pubspec.yaml ensure that we'll be testing on

I've not yet read the article, but plan to. But before I do so, I wanted to echo your sentiment. M.U.L.E. was my favorite game of its era. Thoroughly enjoyable to play. Terrific simple graphics. Delightful chip music and sound. Ga

A brief note on performance: Ur/web has been in recent rounds of our project and has performed exceptionally well. For instance, achieving 112,807 Fortunes responses per second on our Peak Hosting hardware: http://www.teche

Good point. There is definitely a challenge of knowing when a single-threaded collection or stream operation may be preferable to the parallel option. When my colleague wrote his summary of Java 8 [1], he wrote: Returning to the concept

Sorry about that. I'll make it a point to remove that too-forceful block soon. In the meantime for what it's worth, you can read the ramblings via the RSS feed: http://tiamat.tsotech.com/tiamat.rss

Looking past shorter syntax and names, and a bit of magic to intuit the response content type, that's not a whole lot different from the code that gets Undertow spun up [1]. I suppose if you're worried about syntax and short name

We do not (yet) measure the performance of Websocket in our project (the TechEmpower framework benchmarks), but our "Plaintext" test is a rough analogue to a ping-pong test on Websocket. Our Plaintext test uses HTTP pipelining on

We are comfortable accepting and including what we call permutations . Clearly, our project is about testing web application frameworks and platforms (we just say "frameworks" for conservation of typing). Testing NIO vs. InputSt

We do have Windows tests (run exclusively on the Peak environment for Round 9), but most of the ASP.NET tests are not starting and passing validation correctly as-is. We'd like to get these fixed up along with all of the other tests t
