Thanks for the benchmarks.

While it will not affect the way i work it is interesting to see the differences between languages and plateforms , in the context of a web application. Clearly Go and the JVM are doing very well in term of performance. In some cases it can affect the hosting cost , especially when deploying on pay as you go saas.

Big frameworks and ORM , especially in dynamic languages should really get into serious optimization , there is no excuses for some frameworks to be so slow on trivial things like DB requests ,etc ... there will always a last one in the list , but that last one doesnt have to be only 1% of the performances of the first one in the list. It's pretty shamefull.
