Round 23 Complete

[msmith-techempower]

Hello friends!

Round 23 results are in: https://tfb-status.techempower.com/results/91a66052-9d86-446c-b31a-eadbd669ed08

We could use some help from the community to verify these results are aligned with what is expected. (This doesn't mean your particular framework performed better/worse than expected.)

Also, if you'd like to be included in the Round 22 blog post, feel free to write a paragraph about the work you did to improve your results from round to round or a link to your blog post that speaks to those changes. You can leave that here or email them to me at msmith@techempower.com

I am a maintainer of Kelp framework. I've done a lot of work to modernize the framework, squash bugs, develop new features, and of course improve the performance. These improvements, together with completely overhauled benchmark code, should prove Kelp to be one of the best performing Perl web frameworks, as it historically was.

In addition, I've refactored the benchmark code for Mojolicious, the most popular Perl framework. I got in touch with Mojolicious developers to have them review and approve my changes to the code. I've also modified other Perl benchmarks to make them functional, but without altering their code (much).

Both frameworks got their perl version set to the most recent v5.40, which should give them a decent speed boost in itself. Should be interesting to see how these two fare against frameworks written in more popular scripting languages.

The Ruby Rage framework comes packed with performance optimizations:

• A fast router
• Focus on maximizing work at boot time
• A lightweight database connection pool

Thanks to these optimizations, using the same codebase and ORM as the Rails test, Rage achieves 81% to 219% faster performance in every database-related test.

What happened to Actix?

[msmith-techempower]

Actix failed to build in the round run (as did all other actix flavors).

[giancarlocp]

Ohh!. Round 23 is dated Fed-2025.
Actix was compiled with Rust-1.58 (Jan-2022).
From Actix releases

[msmith-techempower]

It seems someone addressed the issues since then. You can see Actix results again in the latest continuous runs: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=test&runid=9efd8d95-b908-41b4-8635-f918fccda2aa
