Benchmarking programming languages and web frameworks

Dart Frog (Dart)

Dart Frog is a minimalistic, fast backend framework for the Dart programming language developed by Very Good Ventures. It helps developers quickly create backend services through a simple core and minimal API surface area. Dart Frog features efficient endpoint creation, hot reload during development, and supports dynamic routing, middleware, and WebSockets.

This benchmark tests how fast a framework can perform concurrent HTTP requests, I/O operations, and JSON de/serialization.

Framework	Requests per second Indicates how many requests per second the framework can handle. (higher is better)	Latency Indicates how long it takes to process a request. (lower is better)	Stability Indicates how stable the framework is under load: median / P99 latency (higher is better)	Memory Indicates how much memory (RAM) the framework uses. (lower is better)

Garbage Collection

Dart is a client-optimized programming language developed by Google for building user interfaces with event-driven programming. It supports both just-in-time and ahead-of-time compilation for development flexibility and deployment performance. Dart is the programming language behind Flutter, Google's UI toolkit for building applications across multiple platforms.
