Yeah don't get me wrong, this wasn't some blog spam about "why I don't use Rails".
In fact I recommend it for a lot of cases. Problems that were solved years ago in Rails, like sane and default CSRF protection, are showing up in newly written PHP7 and Node applications that I'm seeing, because the things that Rails does are generally there for your own good.
I'm also aware it's not a direct comparison because Rails actually had an edge as far as its codebase.
The point I believe we can still take away from the original comment is - Cowboy is fast.
I'm very much looking forward to v2, the way it handles parameters is a much more natural fit imo.
