This isn't a proper comparison because the writer compares a few things that aren't really the same...

Anyway the problem with comparing rpc protocols is that you need to do a per case benchmark if you really care about performance. Pretty much every decent solution will be better than another equally good solution depending on the use case.

Years ago, one of my customers told me he used to work doing high frequency trading in a bank, and the bank had several tailor made solutions for data serialization and RPC made for very specific cases, and they were just better than any generic solution.
