I think it's because they're measuring the rate at which Node.js and Go receive requests, process json, and reply as a single metric.

I measured the speed with which Go and Node.js decode/encode JSON, i.e. there is no network and web server involved, just json.Marshal()/json.Unmarshal() vs JSON.parse()/JSON.stringify()

I benchmarked the web server speed separately.
