The post linked in the GP discusses cheating in this section: https://64.github.io/actix/#blazingly-fast-or-not

Note that this is for the "raw" version of the plain-text and JSON benchmarks, not the fortune benchmark covered in the OP. But I wonder why that raw version is even there. It certainly isn't "realistic", as it claims to be in benchmark_config.json

Also from that section

> In fairness, it seems other benchmarks are doing these things

Personally, I think it's pretty reasonable to sink to the same level as the competition.
