I'm preparing a Hello World 2000 test which will test the runtime
properties of an environment. It will be relevant to the dynamic
template environments like ASP, Mason, Embperl, TT, JSP, PHP...
early results show the oft stated perl is faster than the rest
to be true. More later for RFC.

The IBM JDK I believe does hotspot... blow away? The diff I see
between mod_perl & mod_caucho JSP is .000035 sec/hit of my system
time. Little differences seem to make a bigger impact when
things are running this fast. Note, resin does a lot of
work to compile a JSP, really poor compile time, but you
won't see that in this test.

Almost identical, except the SSI test is changed to be more
fair/similar to the rest. Note that I didn't run all those
benchmarks which is why the numbers are much different. To
see the old results grouped by the system/who did them,
check out:

I don't know what to do with those old benchmarks. I might replace
them with results that come in from people running the bench.pl
program. But it takes a lot of time to set things up, so I don't
know if I'll just lose all of it. Its a lot of data to display
in a relevant way.

I never tested servlets before, that was someone else. I could
set up a servlet test too, but I'm a java newbie, but I do think
the resin mod_caucho stuff does it too, so it should be shortly
forthcoming.
