This logic shit is easy. :P

Do you mean Windows is faster than Linux ?
Or are you speaking about Freebsd/NetBsd/SunOs, ...
The choice made by gwan are the same than those of Vibe
- 1 thread/core
- aync IO + a blocking api (thanks to Fiber for Vibe)
- dynamic page in a low level language ( C vs D )
the MAIN difference:
- Vibe is a library ! If you develop a site with it you must
reompile in case of change.
- Gwan C applets are automatically recompiled on-the-fly in case
of change
NB: this could be done in Vibe ... may-be easier than the
load-balancer approach.
By the way, I like the approach of Yeoseod benchmark: create a
script to install, run and analyse tests on an EC2 instance. Thus
easily reproductible by (almost) everyone !
May be someone should update this test
- add NGinx, Gwan, Vibe, ...
- use also a micro instance
- transfert small file (1K), big file (1MB), dynamic page (hello
world), real stuff ex: gwan loan page (CPU intensive, thus
obviously good for C and D)
I think this test could become THE comparison test such as
http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/ is THE comparison test for
languages...
Unfortunately, I haven't access to an EC2 instance :-(
