This paper presents the results of a comprehensive performance benchmark of Web application development technologies based on the Doculabs-developed Nile @Bench benchmark. Specifically, we discuss the results of benchmarking the Nile application as implemented in Microsoft .NET using C# vs. the latest version of a leading J2EE-based application server product from a top-tier ISV. The paper also presents detailed performance information comparing the performance of the .NET/C# Nile application to verions implemented in Microsoft Active Server Pages with Visual Basic 6.0 COM+ components, and Microsoft ISAPI using Visual C++ 7.0 ATL Server technology.
