LuciferCore .NET Framework Claims 160K Requests Per Second in Stress Test
The open-source .NET framework LuciferCore, now in its third major version, achieved ~160,000 requests per second for static files during a 60-second local stress test with 600 concurrent connections on a standard Windows laptop. The framework's overhead was only 1-3%, with memory stable at 100-300 MB and near-zero garbage collection pressure. The developer emphasizes a shift from a naive prototype to a mature, event-driven Modulith architecture.

The benchmarks are impressive but were run on a single laptop under uncontrolled conditions; independent verification on clean server hardware would strengthen the claims.
