"Humans are fleeing California, looking for a better life!" - CBSNews

That moment when your tool gets posted to Hacker News and the video on your homepage is muted and cannot be unmuted.

TIL: $73/year is "insanely expensive". Literally cheaper than sponsoring an African child or paying Sarah McLachlan to stop using commercials to make me cry.

Biggest annoyance with this software - backspace is, apparently, something that I alone exercise. If you type an incorrect letter, it simply doesn't advance the cursor rather than …

We aren't trying to measure each hardware set as apples-to-apples, but rather give the reader an idea of how performance characteristics for a chosen stack are affected by hosting …

Thanks for the pointer - I have reconfigured our Apache to support the ailing browsers affected by a stricter cipher suite selection.

I am not familiar with Owin; how does it differ from Mono?

Our suite takes a nuke-from-orbit approach when it comes to killing processes, as this has come up in every round. The idea is that now all tests are run with a specific user, and …

Agreed. Our logging has undergone some solid improvements in the last week or two, and so round 11 will, if not resolve this issue completely, make the logged output more useful fo…

Rust and Elixir SHOULD be included in Round 11 - we have already accepted a pull request for the Phoenix framework (Elixir) and have had a pull request for Rust when it was in alph…

We HAVE the memory data, but we have not distilled it into a consumable form to use on our website. Here, for example, is the cpu/ram usage report for ULib's json test: https://git…

Actually, not really. We checked the code to ensure that there was no gaming the system and it definitely APPEARS to be making separate database queries as we require in our rules.…

Isn't this irrelevant since no one is 1) using CGI on Macs and 2) no one is using a Mac as a server?

I just posted another response to this - we had some trouble with the package manager for Erlang after round 6. Additionally, I had been working on improvements for the suite speci…

We have been having trouble with Erlang frameworks since before Round 7. Unfortunately, I was still getting up to speed and improving the suite mostly for Round 7/8 and did not get…

Gemini is our internal Java web framework; it has no relation to the Eclipse project (other than I use Eclipse when I work on Gemini) ^_^

> This is oversimplified debate-club propaganda presented as fact. ... he said, hoping everyone would accept the statement as fact.

We are accepting pull requests on the GitHub page, yes.

In my opinion, you hit the nail on the head with regard to a view on Java (being that it is "slow"). For many years in the early going, it was slow, but it has come around so much.…

There is a column labeled 'errors' for this, but basically only Lift and Phreeze had errors.

While it is true that our source code is closed at the moment, you are still free to check out the benchmark code from github and run it yourself to verify our results. It wouldn't…

We accepted a pull request for an Erlang framework yesterday, so they will be in the next round of benchmarks. If you want to ensure your favorite is listed, you can issue a pull r…

Personally, I really like Lua and I would love to see a pull request with a Lua framework test!
