I'm comparing Bun and Node for server-side workloads and I'm particularly interested in tail latency, not just throughput.

For people running Bun and Node in production or serious benchmarks:

• What are you seeing for P50?
• P90 / P95?
• P99 / P99.9?
• Does Bun actually have better tail latency for your workload, or is the difference mostly in throughput?

I'm especially interested in HTTP servers and SSR, but database/API-heavy workloads are useful too.

If you have numbers, please include:

• Bun/Node version
• workload
• OS
• concurrency / request rate
• whether the load generator ran on the same machine
• P50/P95/P99 (and P99.9 if available)

I'm trying to understand whether differences in P99 are actually runtime-related or mostly caused by the workload/platform/benchmark methodology.
