Project mention: Linux 6.9 Set to Drop the Old NTFS File-System Driver | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-08> FUSE drivers are slow, but "wildly slow" is an overstatement.
I can confirm this, I've played RPGMaker M{V,Z} games natively by swapping out the copy of NWJS¹ it shipped with and running it through a CIOPFS² mount.

Project mention: Elixir or golang which wiil be good for large websocket connections. | /r/elixir | 2023-05-11Closest spiritual competitor to Phoenix I’m aware of in Go world is Revel (https://revel.github.io/) and it’s still at a stiff feature disadvantage.
I looked at oatpp and drogon, which are both great, but feel too high-level for my purposes. I tried drogon and got something working, but it feels like too much for my requirements, as in particular I'd like to slot in my choice of Json and message-body handling. C.f. the simple approach in Crow, which I easily understand and build on.

Project mention: Kore VS CWebStudio - a user suggested alternative | libhunt.com/r/kore | 2024-01-15
I'm investigating using C++ to build a REST server, and would love to know of people's experiences with Crow-- or whether they would recommend something else as a "medium-level" abstraction C++ web server. As background, I started off experimenting with Python/FastAPI, which is great, but there is too much friction to translate from pybind11-exported C++ objects to the format that FastAPI expects, and, of course, there are inherent performance limitations using Python, which could impact scaling up if the project were to be successful.
Alternatives at the low to medium level of abstraction include civetweb and mongoose, which have a common ancestor. Both of these appear to be C rather than C++, but seem to be production quality and well-documented. Another C library is cpp-httplib, which is probably too low-level for me.
Most of the speed I believe is from using the server iodine https://github.com/boazsegev/iodine which is a wrapper around facil.io https://facil.io that is built using C.
