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

KitaJs Survey - No runtime code, fast as bare metal and top level framework.
The fastest node framework is uWebSockets (as they claim, I didn't try it yet), so if Kita's goal is to maximize performance - you should check on it.

Can the performance of the clustered nodejs application compete with (or be better than) the performance of .NET Core-6-7?
I'm serving several hundred thousands queries per second from a single nodejs server (multithreaded) with this: https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets.js/

Should you use jest as a testing library?
For example, Fastify removed the instanceof operatorfrom its codebase because it was causing problems for those developers that rely on jest as a testing framework.
- Is this a valid reason to give up node?

Next JS vs Nest JS
Both are frameworks but NextJs is for Forntend (web app in browser that use ReactJs under the hood) and NestJs is for Backend (server app running on a server witch use Express or Fastify). The only thing similar between them is the typed language in which they were written.

Building a modern gRPC-powered microservice using Node.js, Typescript, and Connect
In setting out to build this service, we wanted to use gRPC for its APIs. We’ve been reaching for REST when building APIs so far, primarily out of necessity, i.e., our public APIs needed auto-generated client SDKs and docs for developers working with them. We built those APIs with Fastify and Typebox but felt burned by a code-first approach to generating an OpenAPI spec. I’ll spare you the details and save that experience/learning for another article. Suffice it to say we love gRPC’s schema-first approach. This blog post summarizes our feelings well
