Java vs C++ "Shootout" Revisited
June 15, 2004

    Summary
    "I was sick of hearing people say Java was slow," says Keith Lea,
"so I took the benchmark code for C++ and Java from the now outdated
Great Computer Language Shootout (Fall 2001) and ran the tests
myself." Lea's results three years on? Java, he finds, is
significantly faster than optimized C++ in many cases.
