Wow, steveklabnik replied to my comment! Unfortunately, both implementations of the service are CPU bound. I think we're running 25 threads in Iron but I'll have to check.

Ah interesting! With that being true, then yes, I'd be surprised that it isn't faster too.

What about memory usage? That's an un-appreciated axis, IMO: for example, all of crates.io takes ~30mb resident, which is roughly the overhead for MRI itself, let alone loading code.

Anyway, the Rust team loves helping production users succeed, so if there's anything we can do, please let us know!
