[BenchP0rn] AMD Ryzen 5950x + Node.js, discover the real power of Node.js Workers

I've just received my new computer based on Ryzen 5950x, it's a real Beast!

One of the first thing I did was to benchmark it with my favorite language, Node.js :)

I've made all the tests below with WRK as the client

for the server part I used Cloudgate which is an open source multi-threaded Node.js application server, more details here: https://github.com/elestio/cloudgate

If you want to run the benchmark on your own hardware:

Install cloudgate:

wget -O - https://cloudgate.terasp.net/CDN/cloudgate.sh | bash

Create a sample project based on a template:

cloudgate --create /tmp/myproj

then type 0 to create a project based on "CatchAll" sample

Finally start cloudgate on your new project path:

cloudgate -r /tmp/myproj

 

My benchmark results:
