I have done a full benchmark of a POST REST API on my computer: Node.js vs Fastify vs Express.js vs Deno vs Bun vs GO. Node.js is used WITH and WITHOUT clustering on 6-core I7 processor
If you'd like to test cluster mode, then use v19.3.0 as it described here https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets.js/issues/593
