What Hacker News says?

  1. I can provide you some pointers as we made it go away. Some data from one of our production virtual hosts: cat access.log.1 | wc -l 1054423 # no static objects served here cat error.log.1 | grep timed For PHP-FPM we use static pm and unix domain sockets. This virtual host if fairly busy with some slow (~200 ms) requests, therefore it uses 96 processes per pool. listen.backlog = -1 in php-fpm.ini for letting the kern…

  3. Alright after some research I fould that LuaJIT is way faster than V8: V8: node fib.js 6.40s user 0.02s system 99% cpu 6.423 total LuaJIT: ./luajit fib.lua 2.02s user 0.00s system 99% cpu 2.026 total http://www.saltwaterc.eu/but-the-question-is-will-it-recur-p...

  7. It is plausible though. node.js have its fair share of "slowness" when compared to other async frameworks for the basic "Hello World" (shameless plug): http://www.saltwaterc.eu/async-frameworks-hello-world-showdo... vert.x used the JavaScript bindings via Mozilla Rhino. I guess that a pure Java test could be a little bit faster than that.
