That'd be true if performance would trump productivity in web development. On the other hand, I don't see a lot of web-apps written in C...
Give Node s try before judging, Node gives you same productivity as other popular languages used for web development but with C-class performance

#23Node/V8 is a beast and will dominate web development in few years. EDIT: Downvote me, I don't care.
If the web development industry moves from PHP to JavaScript as the main backend language... well, from quality perspective nothing will change. IMO.
Or is this a way to say that you feel more satisfied with your work in Python than with your work in node?

#24I am surprised that node.js performs significantly better than python & pypy. Can anyone have some explanation?

#28I'm actually quite perplexed as to why the blog author chose to use the WSGIRef which is known to be one of the slowest of the bunch according to this much more thorough benchmark: http://nichol.as/benchmark-of-python-web-servers Even more perplexed, why wasn't the payload and the WSGI apps sources published?

V8 and PyPy are similarly fast runtimes, but this benchmark tests libraries against each other. Not particularly relevant, especially as at least two of them are known to have slow IO.
