Cutelyst benchmarks on TechEmpower round 13
Right on my first blog post about Cutelyst users asked me about more "realistic" benchmarks and mentioned TechEmpower benchmarks. Though it was a sort of easy task to build the tests at that time it didn't seem to be useful to waste time as Cutelyst was moving target.
Around 0.12 it became clear that the API was nearly freezing and everyone loves benchmarks so it would serve as a "marketing" thing. Since the beginning of the project I've learned lots of optimizations which made the code get faster and faster, there is still room from improvement, but changes now need to be carefully measured.
Cutelyst is the second Web Framework on TechEmpower benchmarks that uses Qt, the other one being treefrog, but Qt's appearance was noticed on their blog:

The cutelyst-thread tests suffered from a segfault (that was restarted by master process), the fix is in 1.0.0 release but it was too late for round 13, so round 14 it will get even better results.

If you want to help MongoDB/Grantlee/Clearsilver tests are still missing :D
