Do you know how does it compare performance wise versus Fastify? Having a benchmark would be nice. (My use case does benefit from performance, so I'm choosing between frameworks mainly on performance + availability of extra plugins and DevEx)

On hello world test its' performance was about express'. But on my machine koa was always behind express and on fastify's benchmarks it's not. Need a verification.

Super high performance has never been the main goal of the current development iteration, I've just been holding it on acceptable level before API became stable. Currently I'm working on improvement which should make Plant faster than others with extra deep optimizations, but it's a piece of work. Not sure if it will be done very soon.
