Description
When testing the server url with pthread designed generator/consumer, we can reach about 800k response/s. but when http.server is tested via wrk, the performance drops significantly by a factor of 10 on the same query, now only getting about 60k response/s

Start by reproducing the comparison between the pthread generator/consumer and wrk against the same server URL and query. Trace the http.server request path while measuring both cases; done means the tenfold performance gap is characterized and a verified improvement or concrete cause is documented.
