Where are the Gorilla benchmarks? I only see raw Go for all 4 benchmarks.

Gorilla is a toolkit, not a framework. It's nice, but it doesn't do all that much beyond the standard library. To me, Go+Gorilla vs raw Go is not similar to, say, a PHP framework vs raw PHP.

(I know what Gorilla is, I've contributed to it :D)

The OP, to which I was replying, said: "see the gorilla test which is a Go framework."

I asked about the Gorilla benchmark itself, since OP seemed to say that adding something like Gorilla would slow down the Go benchmarks, which I don't agree with.

I accidentally replied to the wrong comment; this was intended to be a reply to the parent of your post.

But I also didn't realize that that person was saying that there was a gorilla test, so now I'm mostly confused.
