These details aren't important. It's like bench marking C++ and node and then complaining about implementation details. Node should be and is definitively faster then python in practically every bench mark. I still prefer python o

Regardless node IS definitively one of the fastest interpreted platforms around. It is well known that it is faster than python. Python wins in other areas, including being a much much better designed language.

Python as an implementation is slow but python as a language is much better designed then javascript. That is the main reason why they are gotos.

That's one factor but there is an overall reason behind performance difference. The main reason is v8 and the inordinate amount of resources google has thrown against that thing to make it ultra fast. You should read up on the people w

Agreed. The speed difference between Node and Python is well known. v8 is one of the fastest things around. However, it's more than just JIT. There are business reasons behind why Node is so fast. The number of resources google has thr
