Hello and thank you for the question!

The short answer: - I don't know. - Let Techempower to settle this.

I decided to take on Go(net/http) in the initial benchmarks as it shows good performance and even overperformed c++ solutions that claimed to be more performant (in their tests).

But! There multiple things that can be tuned especially with c++ servers. And there are multiple tests which show different aspects of server's performance. The problem is that currently I have no resources to do all these tests and what is more important - I think such tests should be made by an independent third party.

So I think oat++ should be submitted to Techempower to answer all those questions.

You are expected to deliver tests to Techempower yourself. Optimizing for those tests is part of the game. ;)

net/http is known for being quite slow

Yeah, I already looked through requirements. It will take me some time to prepare all that stuff. But I think it's gonna be fun
