Benchmark suits

The suites used are from the FrameworkBenchmark, the performance test run against both the rack and rails application. For the json output only. All servers are warmed up before getting the final numbers.

Command used to invoke the servers

torqbox -b 0.0.0.0 -E production
puma -e production -p 8080
fishwife -E production -p 8080
RAILS_ENV=production torquebox-lite -p 8080 -b 0.0.0.0
trinidad -e production -p 8080 --address 0.0.0.0 --runtimes 1:16
jubilee -e production
