Perhaps surprising: I agree with @slightlylate that the discussion we're having about web performance isn't helping us move forward as a community.

We're over-focused on benchmarking "hello world" minimal thresholds, with very little focus on what we can do as a larger community to systemically reduce the cost of abstractions?

The "hello world" focus is a big problem. Too many popular backend benchmarks will, for example, never require looking at request headers -- thus favoring a framework which implements `headers.get` as an on demand string search, even though that will hurt real world use cases
