Hi Ryan, the point was not to use Java's built-in sort, but to implement a textbook quicksort implementation in all languages to see how the compiler performs.

Hi Ryan, the point was not to use Java's built-in sort, but to implement a textbook quicksort implementation in all languages to see how the compiler performs. That is why the original PR was not merged. On the smaller PR, I had requested fixing the mandel benchmark that in Java is doing lesser work than the Julia and Lua benchmarks, which gives it an unfair advantage. That should be easy enough to fix too - but I didn't get a reply. Let's get it merged though, and continue the discussion on the PR.
