Thats interesting. In PHP world the situation radically different: modern frameworks based on libevent are really speed up web apps up to 10x.

I've thoroughly benchmarked my own framework[1] for REST APIs and now it outperforms many of Go / Node.js platforms on Techempower[2]

I kinda prefer PHP for most of my web backends like yet another REST API.

Modern framewrok like Comet easily beats any NodeJS or Python project regarding performance and latency:

In reality many programmers do not think much about how slices really work and got stuck with many gotchas from the mentioned quizzes.

I've compiled a few interesting quizzes about Go's slices: https://medium.com/@gotzmann/so-you-think-you-know-go-c5164b...

I'm digging into PHP and creating performant yet PSR compliant framework for building ultra-fast REST APIs:

To any other API server written in "fast" in common sense language or platform like Go, NodeJS, Java, Net Core, etc.
