Yeah, the benchmark is no longer useful due to all the micro-optimizations in the code that never happen in the real world.
Most of them check the Nth letter of the HTTP method to do routing, hard code the content-length, etc. This benchmark shows which language is the fastest to throw the hardcoded data into the socket.
Meantime, Django[1] is the simplest and a real-world application.
