As the article mentions, the test server had 12 cores. The Node.js server ran in "cluster mode" so that all 12 cores were utilized during benchmarking. You can see the implementation here (just ~20 lines of JS): https:/&#x2F

Author here. The benchmarking tool I used for measuring response size was vegeta, which ignores HTTP headers in its measurements. I believe the difference in size is indeed in the QR code images themselves.

I wrote 4 tiny brainfuck compilers in Rust targeting x86, ARM, WebAssembly, and LLVM. The code is 100% safe Rust and is dependency-free. Excluding shared code (just the brainfuck parser) each compiler is standalone and is between just 100-1
