Python frameworks' benchmarks

There are some benchmarks for popular python frameworks.

  • Aiohttp -- Http client/server for asyncio
  • Bottle -- Fast, simple and lightweight WSGI micro web-framework
  • Django -- The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines
  • Falcon -- A high-performance Python framework for building cloud APIs
  • Flask -- A microframework based on Werkzeug, Jinja2 and good intentions
  • Muffin -- A web-framework based on Asyncio stack
  • Pyramid -- A small, fast, down-to-earth, open source Python web framework
  • Tornado -- A Python web framework and asynchronous networking library

The goal of the project is not tests for deployment (like uwsgi vs gunicorn and etc) but instead tests the frameworks itself.

The results
