Yes, most apps get a performance boost when they don't use a framework, and yes, more importance is placed on coders building products efficiently rather than coders building efficient products. In most cases, this is the right choice. According to the TechEmpower benchmarks [1], a simple Django webapp can serve about 500 RPS on a c3.large EC2 instance, which will cost you about $54/month [2]. Adding an extra engineer will cost you about $15K/month (fully loaded). Therefore, for the cost of one engineer, you can pay for about 275 EC2 instances, which can serve 140K RPS, or about 12M hits/day. Very few sites get that sort of traffic. Go work on speeding up the other bottlenecks in your app (like queries that lack indexes, or recursive queries), and don't make things harder on yourself than they need to be.
