We have recently run some performance benchmarks comparing Resin 4.0.29 versus NginX 1.2.0. These benchmarks show that Resin Pro matches or exceeds NginX's throughput.

Benchmark tools
The benchmark tests used the following tools:
- httperf
- AutoBench
httperf
httperf is tool produced by HP for measuring web server performance. The httperf tool supports HTTP/1.1 keepalives and SSL protocols.
AutoBench
Autobench is a tool for automating the process of performing a comparative benchmark test against two a web servers. Autobench uses httperf. Autobench runs httperf against each host. AutoBench increases the number of requests per seconds on each iteration. AutoBench delivers output in a format that can be easily consumed by spreadsheet tools. AutoBench has a mode where it can drive multiple clients against a set of servers to minimize the possibility of testing your client throughput instead of server throughput. The command autobenchd is used to run a daemon on client machines. The autobench_admin command drives many clients to run test at same time by communicating with autobenchd.
Setup Overview
Configuration
The only change that was made was the worker_processes were set to 8 for NginX to improve throughput.
