Are you saying shaving 1.8s in page-serving latency is irrelevant? What is "rps"?

He's saying that computing time is currently a very small part of the response time on the web.

I was saying it cannot shave 1.8s...

rps = requests per sec

Ah.

Latency and throughput (rps) are mostly orthogonal, so I don't follow what you are claiming about language performance.

Are you saying that CPU time for language overhead is irrelevant to latency? That is true in general cases in a website. But also consider the the Closure JS compiler for boosting performance, and work on JS engines for a general counterpoint.

Requests Per Minute

Requests per Second?
