nimja VS httpbeast

there also is: nimja https://github.com/enthus1ast/nimja which looks like jinja2 or twig.

Thank you to the author for writing this.

Entitlement in open source is a massive problem, I have experienced it first-hand many times. The problem is that it discourages contributions not only from the existing maintainers but also from people who may volunteer to fix issues in the future. Would you be willing to contribute if most of the issues are just asking for things (often rudely) and not even saying thanks when an issue is resolved?

Unfortunately I have seen far worse examples than the one linked in the article[1]. I would encourage people to not only think twice before acting this way but to also call out people that are acting entitled in open source to discourage such actions.

How to run those benchmarks?

At that Nim release page:

https://nim-lang.org/blog/2021/10/19/version-160-released.ht...

Is link to this benchmark:

https://web-frameworks-benchmark.netlify.app/result

Where nim is 2nd with 200k req/s, but it is using httpbeast:

https://github.com/dom96/httpbeast

That says it would be more useful to use jester:

https://github.com/dom96/jester

Jester has 150k req/s.

But, when looking at these:

https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/

dragon, actix etc has about 600k req/s .

Also redbean has about 600k req/s, when I tested:

https://redbean.dev/

I tested like this:

git clone https://github.com/wg/wrk.git

cd wrk

./wrk -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip' -t 12 -c 120 http://127.0.0.1:8080/

When I tested https://caddyserver.com v2, it did show about 800k req/s.

It would be very helpful to know how those benchmarks are actually done, so that I could compare what is actually fastest in real world, and not just use some for benchmark tested winning non-realistic code.
