Incorrect. Vert.x does not cache the file. All this benchmark has done is disable the thing that was slowing Node down the most in the benchmark (the file system access). This is not a valid change to the benchmark - a real web server would not cache the file like this - if the file changes on the underlying OS the server should serve the updated file, not the old one. Secondly - this is doing a benchmark using a single core VM on EC2? WTF? No-one in their right mind is going to run a single core EC2 and expect any kind of performance. Thirdly - this is testing the Vert.x JS server only. Try running the the other languages too, Java is significantly faster. If you perform the benchmark as it should be performed and not fine-tuned to make Node.js look good, you'll find that Vert.x seriously outperforms. -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
