In the link you provided PHP is 53% as fast as Spring. I would argue that’s an insane performance reduction.

If Python weren’t fast “enough”, would it be used to power so many successful web backends?



That is for spring-webflux, is that a typical spring set up for web today?

I haven’t coded spring for a few years now, but I was thinking about the traditional spring setup that most use and that is comparable.

You can of course use Python successfully, my argument is that it is easier with PHP, not that it is not possible with Python.

It is a similar argument compared with Java, it is easier with PHP than Java in a web context. Java has other benefit thats fits better for web services IMHO, general higher performance is one.
