Flask vs. Django: Worksheet to choose the right framework

This part seemed odd:

    Flask serves JSON responses slightly faster than Django.

    Flask: 60k
    Django: 12k

A 5x increase is slightly? Yes there is another slide zoomed out showing other frameworks much faster, but still, I'd take 5x over a poke-in-the-eye with a sharp stick if I cared at all about performance.

Those numbers are meaningless without knowing what the code is doing.

It says on the site, but it's basically just a "hello world" json response, so its just comparing the overhead for each web request.
