+## Simple 
 
 We will compare two identical things here, in terms of application, the expected response and the stability of their run times, so we will not try to put more things in the game like `JSON` or `XML` encoders and decoders, just a simple text message. To achieve a fair comparison we will use the MVC architecture pattern on both sides, Go and .NET Core.

I followed their helpful instructions and re-run the benchmarks. The article now contains the latest benchmark output for the .NET Core application with the change both Josh and Scott noted.
