I'd be interested to see performance for Vert.x on its other hosts (this is the JVM version, I believe).


I think you may misunderstand Vert.x's polyglot features:

While vert.x supports many programming languages, all of these are run on the JVM runtime. This means when you use the ruby vert.x API, you're using JRuby; likewise with Javascript run through Rhino, Python through Jython, and Groovy/Scala run through their own interpreter/compilers.

That said, it would definitely be interesting to see the performance implications of using one of those languages and vert.x on the JVM.


Interesting point. You're correct, we've only tested Vert.x as a Java/JVM platform.


I agree, seeing vert.x with it's other language options would be interesting.


Rhino with RingoJS would be another good JVM-based test.
