## Notes

- The current results were run on an Ec2 c4.xlarge instance.
- The servers started in single-threaded mode (GOMAXPROC=1).
- Network clients connected over Ipv4 localhost.

Like all benchmarks ever made in the history of whatever, YMMV. Please tweak and run in your environment and let me know if you see any glaring issues.
