Not sure what I’m looking for.

In the second URL, most async frameworks can deliver around 10x the number of http request for endpoints doing 20 sql queries to pg (15000 vs 1500 for flask/django...).

Note that this thread is a discussion of a new web framework — one that will definitely do network requests, and likely to do db requests (over a network or a local socket, but I/O bound regardless).

Yes, sorry, those are benchmarks for python web frameworks making db queries. All the top performers are async frameworks.
Yes I’ve seen this site before and knew that the top performers are async. However thought there was a particular application where it helped most, eg websockets rather than simple crud. Most apps aren’t making super simple queries like this either. Whether any of it matters much I’m not sure.
