I've done little benchmarks to compare spray and akka-http performance. I 
use default jvm and akka settings. So you can see that there is 
an significant performance difference between it.

code:
spray https://gist.github.com/zergood/18bae0adc2e774c31233. 
akka-http https://gist.github.com/zergood/53977efd500985a34ea1.

versions:
spray 1.3.3 
akka-http 1.0-RC3
scala 2.11.6
java 1.8

wrk output for spray:
Running 1m test @ 
http://127.0.0.1:8080/dictionaries/hello/suggestions?ngr=hond
  30 threads and 64 connections
  Thread Stats   Avg      Stdev     Max   +/- Stdev

wrk output for akka-http:
Running 1m test @ 
http://127.0.0.1:3535/dictionaries/hello/suggestions?ngr=hond

  Thread Stats   Avg      Stdev     Max   +/- Stdev

    Req/Sec   454.43    126.73   679.00     77.77%
  811836 requests in 1.00m, 115.36MB read
Requests/sec:  13531.62
Transfer/sec:      1.92MB

Is there any akka-http config options to increase performance to the same 
level as spray?
