Here is the gist of this. I am not testing how fast the individual
frameworks are. Comparing any of the frameworks to a cached page in
Varnish would be completely unfair. They are all running under the
worst case conditions. They are using using wsgiref.simple_server
worst case conditions. They are using wsgiref.simple_server
and accessing high latency data. These conditions would make any
framework cry.

What I really want to convey the fact that no matter how fast you get your
application layer. If you are doing caching in the application it is
going to be extremely slow compared to doing caching inside of a
specialized caching proxy like Varnish. There is just no comparison.
