Benchmarked with ApacheBench. The test is 10 concurrent request 10 times so 100 requests. I wanted to do 1000 requests but the pure Umbraco test would put to much presure on my server. I am using my production server for this so the tests can be taken with a grain of salt.
I am using a medium Azure virtual machine (Medium VM (2 x 1.6GHz CPU, 3.5GB RAM)
