1) We didn't know that Mono was the wrong tool for that job before doing the experiment.
2) The install size is very large compared to almost anything you can actually install with a Debian Jessie main packages.
3) The performance is way slower compared to Node.js.
4) The memory footprint is a least twice the memory footprint of Node.js.
Given the results, I doubt that Mono is the right tool for any new projects. It could maybe allow to run historical C# code on Linux that rely on some
Node.js has a clear and big advantage in term of installation size, processing performance and memory footprint. In addition Node.js has the sweet advantage to use the same Javascript language than on the browser client. Even if this is not simple to measure, this feature drastically reduce some kind of "brain footage" needed to deliver a project.
