-<p>This benchmark was performed by <a href="http://www.ajo.es">Miguel Angel Ajo Pelayo</a> with Django running on Cherokee 0.6.0 and Apache 2.0.40. It shows Cherokee as a clear winner serving dynamic content. Specifically three times as much! And you haven't yet seen static results. The advantage is a lot bigger.</p>

+<p>Benchmark of Cherokee 0.5.4 under Windows, contributed to the main mailing list. Here is the link to the <a href="http://www.cherokee-project.com/pipermail/cherokee/2008-May/002757.html">non abridged post</a>.</p>

+<p>Cherokee had one million static requests and one million scgi dynamic requests with two <b>ab</b> commands started at about the same time. More info follows:</p>

+<pre>
+The scgi performance was quite impressive. I'm not sure about the
+details of Cherokee's scgi and fcgi implementation. In my testing, a
+multi-threaded scgi back-end written in Python was much faster
+handling concurrent requests than a single-threaded fcgi backend
+written in a compiled language, when the number of concurrent requests
+was more than 5. But dealing with continuous but non-concurrent
+requests, the natively compiled fastcgi takes about 40% of the time of
+what it takes the scgi Python app to handle a request. This tells me
+that the Python scgi backend (web.py) is able to cope with pretty
+heavy traffic, which will be a bit less than half of the ultimate
+capacity that could be achieved by running a server pool of
+fastcgi/scgi written in a compiled language. (I'm assuming the
+overhead of fcgi and scgi are similar, or the difference ignorable.)
+
+The test is done on a single-CPU vmware guest OS running on a powerful
+core 2 dual host. It was taking most CPU time of a core during the
+test. No other vms or heavy tasks were run during the tests.
