Looking at the graphs, I would recommend it would have been better to market it as "just as performant as nginx and htproxy" instead of "faster than all ...". While highlighting the simplicity as the added benefit above those all.

Thank you for the feedback!

I did the reverse proxy benchmarks for NGINX, when someone opened a GitHub issue about missing NGINX benchmarks, and asked about benchmark comparisons. It turned out that yeah, Ferron is close to NGINX's reverse proxy performance.

But nginx has acquired a lot of features over the years, which has pros and maybe also cons.
