Quick Django Benching :: SuperJared.com
A simple but powerful benchmark of Django served with mod_python, nginx, and lighttpd. Interesting, but not particularly surprising results.
Alrond | The performance test of 6 leading frameworks
Yet another benchmark of web frameworks, and yet another win for Django (this time it comes out around 3x faster than any of the alternatives).

The Django community in 2009
In March of 2007, I attempted to measure the size of Django’s community. That March turned out to be a major inflection point in Django’s growth: the release of 0.96 brought a lot of new features — testing and the new forms library being the critical ones — and those in turn brought in a lot of new users. Growth since then has been at a much faster pace. Today I thought it’d be interesting to review the same metrics I used back then. I was quite curious to see what’s changed, and by how much.
