I'd be interested to see performance for Vert.x on its other hosts (this is the JVM version, I believe).

Interesting point. You're correct, we've only tested Vert.x as a Java/JVM platform.

Rhino with RingoJS would be another good JVM-based test.

He's a fantastic software engineer but he is _very_ abrasive. I've read some of his posts claiming he would fight some other developer in person at a conference if he steps up. He would rent out a ring and he would put his yellow belt to practice. Really, I'm not making this up. He sounds like a jerk to work with.

He's actually a really nice person. He helped me out (to him I was just some stranger on the phone) when I was trying to decide what to do with my career when I was in NYC. Zed Shaw is probably one the best people you can know in the developer community, a very good guy. Your sensationalism based on some of the stuff he says on Twitter and Blogs is amusing though.

> Your sensationalism

well he doesn't try to be a nice guy in public...

What's wrong with that guy?

He's a lifestyle ranter. He used to have a section of his website called /rants/ which you can still read here: http://web.archive.org/web/20080105054424/http://www.zedshaw...

Seems like a bad case of ADD :\

In the FAQ for the benchmarks, could you also add a bit about how you configured the JVM (OpenJDK?). Curious about heap settings, etc.? Did you just use the default install? e.g. http://planet.jboss.org/post/rhel_openjdk_performance_tuning http://www.jaspersoft.com/sunopenjdk-jvm-garbage-collection-...
