Benchmarking programming languages and web frameworks
Gin (Go)
Gin is a high-performance HTTP web framework written in Go (Golang). It is known for its speed and efficiency, built on top of the HttpRouter, the fastest HTTP router for Go. Gin provides a simple to use API for building robust web applications and microservices.
This benchmark tests how fast a framework can perform concurrent HTTP requests, I/O operations, and JSON de/serialization.
Go, often referred to as Golang, is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed at Google. It is syntactically similar to C, but with memory safety, garbage collection, structural typing, and CSP-style concurrency. Go is designed to be simple, efficient, and readable, with a focus on modern software design and concurrent programming. It is widely used in production at Google and many other organizations worldwide and is particularly favored for building network servers, data pipelines, and even command-line tools.
