Yes _however_ the nodejs benchmark at least is handling each message asynchronously, whereas the go implementation is only handling connections asynchronously.
Edit to add: looks like the same goes for the c++ and rust implementations. So I think what we might be seeing in this benchmark (particularly the node vs c++ since it is the same library) is that asynchronously handling each message is beneficial, and the go standard libraries json parser is slow.
Edit 2: Actually I think the c++ version is async for each message! Dont know how to explain that then.
The client fires off all the requests before waiting for a response: https://github.com/matttomasetti/NodeJS_Websocket-Benchmark-... so the comparison isn't quite apples to apples.
