Is performance of Grails 2.0 really that awfully low?

Question

I\'m somewhat newbie for WEB development based on JVM stack, but future project will require specifically some JVM-based WEB engine. So I started looking on some ground to make

Answer 1

Yeah this is a benchmark by someone who doesn't know alot about grails or his environment; first he is running on Windows know for being bad at resource management which is why most web serves/app serves run in Linux environments.

Second, if he is using 'ab' to benchmark, then he doesn't have his proxy cache setup because after the first hit, the remainder of the hits would be cached and the he is now benchmarking his cache from my understanding of his setup.

So this all just looks like the benchmarking of a bad setup and a poor understanding of Grails. No offense intended.
