It has been a while since the Socket Benchmark of Asynchronous server. That benchmark looked specifically at the raw socket performance of various frameworks. Which was being benchmarked by doing a regular HTTP request against the TCP server. The server itself was dumb and did not actually understand the headers being send to it. In this benchmark i will be looking at how different WSGI servers perform at exactly that task; the handling of a full HTTP request.
