Running a local benchmark to compare Node.js and Deno gave me the same magnitude of performance difference. I like the concepts behind Deno but the performance should stay a top priority. Even more for a new technology that is looking for future adoption. If Deno gets faster than Node.js, I adopt it. If it stays 5x less performant than Node.js, I skip it.

Performance should improve over time, there's no fundamental reason from what I understand that it shouldn't be as fast or faster than node.
node has had 10 years of work and performance effort from so many people and organisations.
