Benchmarks for various languages

bench

benchmarks for various languages

get result

• install deps
• then run python3 runner.py <passes> where passes is how many times to run each test (we reccommend 10)

dependencies

• see tools used

tools used

"oh, but there is a faster <language> compiler"

• we deliberately chose the most common tool for each language
• as this is the one most devs would use
• any language can be pushed to its limits like this, that is not the point of this project

"where are the optimisation flags?"

• we chose to exclude them, for the reasons outlined above

"where is ?"

• if you want to add a language (or script), see CONTRIBUTING.md
