Hyperapp is not optimized to be the fastest framework at the expense of worse developer experience. Having said that, we're definitely working on improving our runtime performance (see https://github.com/hyperapp/hyperapp/issues/499). So much to do!

I want to point out that while these benchmarks are very useful to detect underlying, potentially serious runtime and memory performance issues in your algorithm/framework, the implicit idea that even the slowest framework according to this list (e.g. choo) is a poor choice or inadequate for frontend development is ridiculous (the js-framework-bench creates > 80,000 nodes).

Please don't do that to your users, regardless of the framework you are using. Even the most complex user interface will have < 10,000 nodes. Tables/grids may get you there faster, however.

Still, in the case of Hyperapp we're talking about 100 to 200 milliseconds slower in the worst test (i.e., partial update) for a worst-case scenario.
