With slim in particular I notice that the benchmarks list it as "Raw database connectivity" but in the code it looks like it's using RedBean ORM. I'll look more at lunch, i'm probably just misreading something.
Although obviously ORM is more realistic, since if you're sophisticated enough to be using composer and a framework, you're probably using an ORM. I know the point of this benchmark is frameworks not ORMs, but it would be interesting to swap them out and see if there's a huge difference.
