Thank you for great response.

But for me all this seems quite biased towards small Frameworks/Platforms. I will hardly ever serve one JSON response form full stack framework. If I just made some C server that would do those tasks very well it would be first in this list but very far of anything of value.

Albert Einstein once wrote, “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

If one framework does less than another while still fulfilling the requirements of the test, then it ought to outperform that other framework, right? I don't see that as a bias; it's the expected result.

I said "does less" rather than "is smaller" there. I think that's an important distinction. It's theoretically possible for a framework to provide a feature at zero cost to users who don't use that feature (in responding to a given request). Some frameworks don't do that.


There is no evidence that Einstein ever wrote or said that [1].
