Node.js must be run with following setup (located at /var):

- Install (npm i)

- Node.js will be running at http://127.0.0.1:8090 (node app.js)

To benchmark you must install \ from npm (npm i autocannon -g). After installing you may proceed:

- Test Lynx: autocannon http://localhost:8080/favicon.ico -d 10 -c 30 -w 3

- Test Node: autocannon http://localhost:8090/favicon.ico -d 10 -c 30 -w 3
