The Techempower entries are heavily gaming the system.
They often strip out framework functionality and hyper-optimise for the specific benchmark, including things like pre-allocating the exact amount of memory needed to serve the request, not doing route matching et all, etc.
They are basically an exercise in "how clever can we be to win the benchmark" rather than a realistic portrait of real world performance.
at least for .NET the versions that strip out framework functionality are marked separately, though this part is not that easy to understand if you don't know about it. There are several .NET entries from very low-level without MVC and without ORM up to the full stack.
But still, these benchmarks have their uses but there are a lot of caveats you need to consider when looking at the results.
