Those benchmark outcomes are ridiculously in nginx-unit’s favor over php-fpm, way more than I would have believed was possible. What is php-fpm doing architecturally that is so different to warrant such poor relative performance?

You see similar performance improvements in bencharmarks of Litespeed & PHP LSAPI [1].

Unfortunately said benchmarks are usually done by the software company making said webserver, so have to be taken with a pinch of salt.
