> It terms of performance, we also have seen a significant (about 25%) bump in terms of feeds processed by second per server.

They rewrote the entire codebase and obtained for just a 25% gain? It doesn't sound like they are very happy to be coding in javascript now either.

Everyone: please don't rewrite your code, it's almost never worth it. The one exception is rewriting a core part of an algorithm in C for speed (the last 10x speedup).
