I guess some performance testers just don't know what they are measuring, in this case: the overhead of docker of the performance of the Python code. To be fair it is hard to understand a whole system performance. I would love to see a test without Docker though.

Original author here. The docker network point is a good one, I'll give it a try with host network.
There is still value with comparing different clients with the same network constraints. Yeah it is a contrived setup(noted in the post), but at least is the same contrived setup for each test.
