The Story

A fully conformant Kubernetes gateway, built in Rust for speed. It carries your HTTP, LLM and MCP traffic on one data plane.

Portus Conformance Performance Gateways Architecture Standalone GitHub 0.4.0 One network stack: Rama Portus API & AI Gateway A fully conformant Kubernetes gateway, built in Rust for speed. It carries your HTTP, LLM and MCP traffic on one data plane.

Gateway API v1.6.2, experimental channel. The upstream suite runs in-cluster against a real per-Gateway deployment. Each square below is one passing result.

Measured with the open gateway-api-bench method: three interleaved rounds on one machine, against the same backend pods as the top-ranked gateway in that benchmark. Every number and every round is published.

Method: the howardjohn/gateway-api-bench approach on an AWS c7a.8xlarge (32 vCPUs, AMD EPYC 9R14; single-node k3s, pods at MTU 65000), three interleaved rounds per gateway, fortio in-cluster with one pod per rung, 3 proxy pods each. Medians shown. Numbers from one machine are only comparable with each other. agentgateway is ahead on 1 MiB plain-HTTP downloads and uses less memory per pod. Failover figures come from the gateway-api-bench suite on Docker Desktop with no retry policy; with a RetryPolicy Portus returns 0 errors. Every round, including the tests agentgateway wins →

You can also browse AI stories on Hacker News Search . Some people are making Hacker News without AI. This is the opposite, only AI news. We discover posts from Hacker News’s rankings and recent submissions, without an AI keyword search. We read accessible articles and use an AI model to judge whether AI is a central topic, not just a passing mention. Results are cached and new posts are reviewed in the background. Trending balances points and recency; new sorts by time; top this week sorts by points. The percentage uses the same classifications for every post in HN’s top-story ranking , 30 posts per page. “Read” means article or submission content was analyzed. When an article is blocked, a confident headline classification may be used and is marked “title only”; otherwise the topic stays unknown. A range shows the minimum and maximum AI share while unknowns remain. Hover over a block to see its classification. These are model estimates, and HN’s displayed pages may differ.

Otōto is an MCP server for Claude Code and OpenCode: a small model on a server you choose explores the code and hands your agent short answers with checked citations. Otōto is an MCP server for Claude Code and OpenCode. Your agent hands it a question; a small model on a server you choose explores the code and brings back a short answer, with the lines that back it checked and quoted. macOS on Apple silicon and Linux · See the script · Open source · How it works Where does a failed request move on to the next model server? Llm::request tries each endpoint in turn; one that fails is marked down for 60 s and the next is asked. When every failure was one that passes (a dropped connection, a 502), it goes round once more after 2 s.
