Benchmark

[Baskaran S]

Hi,

Lift noob.

Some time ago, I found https://actix.rs/ which links to a benchmark (https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r20&hw=ph&test=fortune), that may or may not be as strong as TPC Benchmarks.

TechEmpower reports several tests (on two environments Physical and Cloud):

    Composite scores,

    JSON serialization,

    Single query,

    Multiple queries,

    Cached queries,

    Fortunes,

    Data updates,

    Plaintext.

Elixir, Play, Akka, Ruby, etc., are listed but Liftweb is not in the pile. It will be interesting to see Liftweb's ranking.

Dreaming out loud:  what if Liftweb is ported to Rust+Elm? Basically, give up the safety and comfort of the JVM (ecosystem and tooling) and endure tons and tons of pain to stay at the top of the pile. Is there a scenario that justifies this trouble?
