While it's not a one-to-one analogy due to the fact that
Appender is in Phobos, I think it would be totally reasonable
to benchmark numpy instead of Python.
Well, that makes all benchmarks pointless. C++ would win every
single one, because you are then benchmarking everything C
provides, plus everything C++ performance libraries provides,
plus OpenMP.
C++ would destroy the competition on almost any performance
benchmark implemented by a group of competent C++ programmers.
