What's Good

Consistently tops TechEmpower benchmarks. Mature ecosystem with middleware and extensions. The actor model enables certain patterns. Documentation is comprehensive.

The Catch

Macro-heavy API differs from idiomatic Rust. The actor foundation is not always needed. Some community history caused concern.

Verdict

Maximum performance when benchmarks matter.
