Where is ASP.Net MVC? Odd that you list obscure frameworks like Wicket and leave out one of The Big Four frameworks.

(The big four in my book are: ASP.Net MVC, Rails, Django and CakePHP)



We'd love to have ASP.Net MVC included. One minor gotcha is that to do it justice, we'd need to spin up a Windows EC2 instance and figure out how to script that. It's on our to-do list!

We did briefly test ASP.Net on Mono (see another comment in this thread) but didn't include it since we didn't believe that qualifies as a "production" grade ASP.Net MVC deployment.


You should include it; Lots of shops are deploying their products on .NET MVC with Mono.


I agree... Let's see what the numbers show for Mono, and on Windows.


Just use AppHarbor.


I came here to say this. I don't understand why some of the development community likes to act like .Net doesn't exist....

It pains me to see charts and reporting done like this while leaving out my favorite framework.


Since these benchmarks are so wide-ranging, I agree. But that means setting up an entire new testbed on Windows, and then trying to make it comparable to the other platform testbed; possibly tuning. You need a Windows expert to do this. My question is, why aren't Windows experts setting these up?


If you can cover ASP.Net MVC, then I'd recommend including ServiceStack. My own tests of their JSON implementation have shown it to be 5-10x faster than ASP.net MVC.

Drop me a line if you need a hand with either :)


Just curious, but is CakePHP seen as a major framework by people outside the PHP Community?


Big four without any Java framework, but with .Net one? And CakePHP as a major one, I wasn't aware it's still used.
