There has been work on performance and more to come (source: ASP.NET Community Standup podcasts). The stated goal is to be in the ballpark of the top performers. You can follow the progress here:

https://github.com/aspnet/benchmarks

Just keep in mind that the work just started (and it was recently put on hold to get the Linux version - beta 7 - out the door).

Updates have slowed on it (I haven't had the heart to nag them because they've been so busy with beta 7) but they're continuing to make good progress on it, e.g. https://twitter.com/DamianEdwards/status/632000189818007552

"Kestrel hit 151k RPS just now for plaintext test with pipelining (depth 16). Lots of known things to fix still, big gains to come #aspnet"

"have a fix in the works that'll give us another 5-10% & a list of other things to attack after that. Fun stuff :)"

Very happy to see a focus on performance on the roadmap.

I've actually seen that benchmark page, but all the results it lists are for the Web Server running on Windows (perfsvr), where Linux is only used for load generation.

Any idea if the results are similar with the server running on the Linux machine (perfsvr2)?

That's a good question to ask now that beta 7 is out. I'll try to remember to bring that up at the next Community Standup.
