Why is tornado and node not on this, it would crush the competition.



Pretty far from crushing

The OP benchmark is missing netty and other frameworks meant to be high performance, for higher performance languages.


Node is only using one of the 8 cores in that test. It's not using express either.


Using a framework on top of plain node.js is not going to make it faster.


Deep down you know that's not what I meant


Am I missing something? Neither of those links have anything to do with Tornado.


It has node


Because tornado and node aren't web frameworks? Why don't we use a bus as a boat?... because it isn't a boat.


Interesting point... the difference between a language vs. framework is often overlooked..

If there are cases where they may overlap, how would you want to develop a test?


Node is arguable. You can use express.

Tornado is definitely a web framework.
