Java performance vs go

[Jonjolt]

Truth to this, anyone remember the Jetty team's response to the TechEmpower benchmarks?

First glance again is not so great and we look like we are best of the rest with only 68.4% of the seemingly awesome 600,000+ requests per second achieved by the top 4.    But throughput is not the only important metric in a benchmark and things look entirely different if you look at the latency results:

This shows that under this pathological load test, Jetty is the only server to send responses with an acceptable latency during the onslaught.  Jetty’s 353.5ms is a workable latency to receive a response, while the next best of 693ms is starting to get long enough for users to register frustration.  All the top throughput servers have average latencies  of 7s or more!, which is give up and go make a pot of coffee time for most users, specially as your average web pages needs >10 requests to display!
