TechEmpower Benchmarks

ยท One min read

TechEmpower Round 23 results are in. Rage shows solid performance improvements over other Ruby frameworks:

  • 81-219% faster than Rails across database tests
  • 31-100% faster than Sinatra in the same benchmarks

These numbers reflect what the architecture was designed for - efficient handling of I/O-bound operations through non-blocking I/O and fiber-based concurrency. Database operations are typically the bottleneck in web apps, so this is where the differences show up most clearly.
