Idea borrowed from: https://medium.com/@tschundeee/express-vs-flask-vs-go-acc0879c2122#.61v429cr3 Assumes OS X with Homebrew

SETUP

Benchmark tool (wrk)

git clone https://github.com/wg/wrk
cd wrk; make; cp wrk; /usr/local/bin/; cd ..;

Python

pip install meinheld gunicorn falcon

GO

go get github.com/gorilla/pat
go build serve.go```

#NodeJS w/pm2 for lazy concurrency

```npm install
npm install -g pm2```


## Haskell

Install [Haskell stack](https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/README/) in your `$PATH`.

cd haskell-servant stack build

### RUN BENCHMARKS

Test Go

./serve

Bench it (in other tab)

wrk -c 64 -d 30s http://localhost:4000/10

Test Falcon with 4 threads per core

gunicorn -w16 falconer:app -k meinheld.gmeinheld.MeinheldWorker

Bench it (in other tab)

wrk -c 64 -d 30s http://localhost:8000/10

Test NodeJS (express)

pm2 start express.js -i 16

Bench it (in other tab)

wrk -c 64 -d 30s http://localhost:3000/10

Test NodeJS (restify)

pm2 start express.js -i 16

Bench it (in other tab)

wrk -c 64 -d 30s http://localhost:3000/10

cd haskell-servant && stack exec haskell-servant-exe

Bench it (in other tab)

wrk -c 64 -d 30s http://localhost:8080/10
