This seems to be a nice benchmark. For the Python group, I would suggest two things: (1) include a lightweight framework like Bottle, and (2) Try pypy.


Thanks. Agreed, we'd love to get a Python micro-framework in the test. If you have some free time and feel like putting together a test for Bottle as a Github pull request, we'd really appreciate that.


(3) use bjoern

seriously, in my rough helloworld and sqlite value increment by 1 benchmark, Bjoern+wsgi app runs 2x as fast than nodejs.


I'd be curious about a gevent-worker-driven server, too. Presumably they're running Django on either a thread- or processor-driven concurrency server, and gevent can show some pretty major gains. You could also do permutations of these: gevent on pypy (using pypycore), etc.
