The thing I don't like about these benchmarks is.. they tell you which
framework is best for writing a trivial 'hello world' application. But
no one writes trivial 'hello world' applications. A
framework/programming language/software package/what-have-you. Can be
really fast for trivial stuff, but perform much less favorably when
performing "real-world" tasks. It's kind of the same argument that's
used when people say X computer boots faster than Y computer. That's
nice and all, but I spend much more of my time *using* my computer than
*booting* it, so it doesn't give me a good picture of how the computers
perform. This is why most "good" benchmarks run a series various tests
based on real-world use cases.
