title: Chat server with websocket+node.js vs a native client with xmpp
body: <p>I couldn't find any reasonable benchmarks regarding comparison between a chat client that runs with using node.js chat server V.S. a client that works with xmpp.</p>
  
  <p>I know node.js is async and as far as I know so does xmpp . However, my main concern is performance with same amount of concurrent users.</p>
  
  <p>I would need this information to write an android app. Would like to know your opinions and advantages/disadvantages using both systems.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
