Re: Call to Benchmark PSGI!

Given multiple runs, it seems that Gazelle is only a little faster
then a correctly-configured mod_perl. Nothing to make headlines over.
PSGI still brings plenty of advantages, like not requiring apache and
more pleasant dev environment.

apache mod_perl, size limit = 750_000, 10 workers:

Concurrency Level:      8
Time taken for tests:   110.009 seconds
Complete requests:      4000
Failed requests:        0
Total transferred:      114804000 bytes
HTML transferred:       113272000 bytes
Requests per second:    36.36 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       220.018 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       27.502 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          1019.13 [Kbytes/sec] received

Gazelle, max-workers: 10:
