That'd be true if performance would trump productivity in web development. On the other hand, I don't see a lot of web-apps written in C...

Give Node s try before judging, Node gives you same productivity as other popular languages used for web development but with C-class performance

Ummm, where are you getting that node has C-class perf?

A quick google [1] results in this article. Look for JS:V8 - Node runs off of that. Most of the graphs I glanced at show it's very close to C. I glance because I've properly checked out other benchmarks which confirm this.
