  • Update: We’ve looked JSON serialization specifically where axum was pretty far down in the rankings. It seems other frameworks are doing weird hacks to improve response times. For example look at this code for actix-web. No one writes code like that and when you compare more real code in actix-web and axum, axum wins by about 6%.

  • just

    the only javascript runtime to hit no.1 on techempower :fire: (by just-js)

  • That's partially true. just does have a sizeable portion (5k SLoC) of it's codebase in C++, however alot of the performance is from tuning behavior to play nicely with V8. Here's a blogpost from the author on the subject.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • modules

    blessed c++ modules for just-js (by just-js)

  • Just-js http module is pretty much entirely written in C++. Whole Just is pretty much C++ code.
