Re:Vert.x (JVM async) vs Node.js Http benchmarks results by purplefox on Wednesday May 09, 2012 @01:29PM (#3949588)
Vert.x has a hybrid model.

It has both event loops and a background thread pool, so you can choose which to run your task on depending on what kind of thing it is.

E.g. it's stupid to run long running or blocking actions on an event loop.
