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/

Here is a fun question:
https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets.js/ ^ this is the best for performance

I'm open-sourcing my game engine
They use (uWebSockets)[https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets], which was written in C++, but has an interface to use in NodeJS. It's been really performant for me in my simple tests compared to other popular websocket libs that slow down fairly quickly.

8 Best WebSocket Libraries For Node
µWebSockets, pronounced as "microWebSocket”, is a WebSocket library written in C++ and has Node.js bindings. Its design focuses on being efficient and scalable, making it ideal for applications that require high concurrency and low latency.

Recommendations for a CPP HTTP server which supports changing max threads at run time.
You can do that with any single threaded library that leaves threading to you. Like for example https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets

What's the hot tech stack these days?
Websockets are also pretty valuable for updating the page in real time, there are servers in many languages. I'm a big fan of https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets which is C++ but also has JS bindings to use with Node.js.

Nuklear – A single-header ANSI C immediate mode cross-platform GUI library
Not exaclty -- it looks like it's pretty overkill for my needs
I'm looking for something more like websocketpp[0], or even just grpc without a requisite proxy. uWebsockets looks really promising, being header only, but in the fine print requires a runtime library. unfortunately, none of that ecosystem seems to use cmake, making integrating it that much more of a pain.
why use cpp for this, I'm sure some HNer will ask. the ray tracer itself is using cuda, that's why. I've also debated
- running it as a grpc server and having some proxy in a more web-accessible language
- creating python bindings and using python to make a websocket/http server for it
neither of those are out of the question, but they're not my first choices, because I'd like to keep the build & execution simple. introducing dependencies, especially other executables, is in conflict with that.
i don't need anything particularly scalable -- a threaded implementation, or one using select() would be fine, if not preferable.

WebSocket Server in C
Really cool i also made and CAPI for using WebSocket in C, https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets/tree/master/capi
I will take a deep look on your project thanks for sharing!

Socketify.py - Maybe the fastest web framework for Python and PyPy
We discover a really fast, small, and well maintained C++ Library called uNetworking/uWebSockets, but no C API available, so we create and adapt the full C API from uNetworking/uWebSockets and will integrate libuv powered fetch and file IO, this same C API is used by Bun
- In the 1970s, programming was an elite's task. Today programming is done by uneducated "farmers" and as a result, the care for smart algorithms, memory usage, CPU-time usage and the like has dwindled in comparison.
