I am wondering how important these benchmarks are. I am under the impression that response time of any reasonably-sized application is determined mostly by the time you need to run business logic (such as database queries). That part of the application is always custom code outside of whatever framework you use. If this assumption is correct, the raw performance of the framework is not too important. It becomes much more relevant how easy, fast, and flexible the framework is in supporting you in writing that business logic.

On the other hand, the above statement applies more to traditional frameworks like CGI::Application, whereas "full-stack" frameworks such as Jifty or Rails also aim to provide the underpinnings for the business logic part (such as object-relational mappers), in the extreme case completely and exclusively controlling the database. If you go this way, it is probably quite essential to look at how this impacts on performance.

The article states that although "we didn’t come up with complex queries", "when connecting rails to Oracle the performance dropped to the extent it made any production use of the product useless". Anyone has any idea what went wrong there?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
