Then why is it that IO-heavy benchmarks such as the Techempower web benchmark are dominated by async frameworks? The fastest results there are all from async frameworks [1].
And among Rust frameworks the same pattern holds. The fastest Rust frameworks are async while a synchronous frmework such as Rocket is about 20x slower.
