TechEmpower just released Round 13 of its Web Framework Benchmarks. In previous rounds, web2py did very poorly because the original app that was submitted was using some inefficient code and was deployed with the development server rather than a production server. Here is a link to results from the previous round comparing web2py with Django and Flask: Round 12 <https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r12&hw=ph&test=fortune&l=4ftgjj&w=35w-0&d=e5&o=6&f=0-jz6rk-6bk-1s-9zldvk-1ekg-2> .
I submitted a re-worked version of the web2py app for the new round. Although web2py is still slower than the other frameworks, its performance is now within the same order of magnitude as Django and Flask, with about a 5000% improvement from Round 12 relative to those frameworks. Notably, web2py is actually *faster *than Django and Flask on the "Multiple queries" task. Here is a link to the new results (again, comparing with Django and Flask): Round 13 <https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r13&hw=ph&test=fortune&l=4ftgjj&w=35w-0&d=e5&o=6&f=0-jz6rk-6bk-1s-9zldvk-1ekg-2> Notice, in addition to a standard web2py setup, there is also a version labeled "web2py-optimized," which uses a few tricks to speed things up (e.g., disabling sessions; serving responses directly from model files). Note, something seems to have gone wrong with the "Data updates" task. When testing on my VM, web2py's update numbers (as well as those of the other frameworks) were comparable to the numbers on the other database tasks, but in the public benchmarks just released, the "Data updates" numbers are dramatically lower (for all frameworks). This is despite the fact that the final benchmark numbers for all the other tests are consistently *higher *than the numbers I saw on my VM. The web2py code can be found at https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/tree/master/frameworks/Python/web2py. You can see the results for all frameworks tested at https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/.
