Do not test at localhost... NEVER. Just a bit of "luck" and you can get completly different results... One CPU ( even with 2-4 cores ), that's still one CPU, running a webserver with threads and benchmark, you will get "weird" results...
Typical problem with different multiple applications. That's fight for CPU and RAM resourcess... NEVER do benchmarks on localhost... Btw ( send your email to mailing list too ) Pozdrawiam Jędrzej Nowak 2009/7/28 Eric Lapouyade <[email protected]>: > Hi, > > Yes, I am testing on localhost, I do not have 2 servers side by side. > It does not test the tcp/ip stack, but gives a good idea what could be > performance for distant connexion. > > Having only 500 Req/s for keep-alive connections instead of 10 000 Req/s > with no keep-alive, even on localhost, it seems to be a big bug. > When I test with cherokee 0.6 and 0.7, the perf was good on localhost and > keep-alive, since 0.8, I get 20x less perf...

Nothing wrong with this, it's good advertising, and cherokee is a great project. What we need is an updated benchmark if the above statement still is true, and if it's not, switch marketing to memory use and cherokee-admin. >> >> After all, ideally the fastest free web server out there should show >> >> such >> >> speed in a variety of benchmarks no?
