I wouldn't put too much emphasis on that benchmark as the
implementations appear different? Note that Felix compiles to
C++, yet beats C++ in the same test? Yes, Felix claims to do
some high level optimizations, but doesn't that just tell us
that the C++ code tested wasn't optimal?
Languages should be fast by default. I always find it missing
the point when people go crazy during these benchmarking tests
trying to make the code as fast as possible by tweaking both
the code and the compiler flags. Go through that effort with a
2 million line app. Tell me how long that takes.
YES +1000
