Sorry, I meant all the new shiny languages are too young to make good estimation about and from those Go and Rust appear to be somewhere in the Java level.
Didn't mean to imply that other shiny languages are in the Java level, just bad grammar on my part I suppose.
- jjnoakes 10y agoWhy do you think Rust is at the Java level for example?
- Illniyar 10y agoIt's a low level language without a GC and compiles to LLVM, it should in theory rival C/C++ in performance, but it's still young and only recently begun making headways for performance. So just a hunch, also some barely usable benchmarks that appeared on HW a few months back.
- jjnoakes 10y ago> only recently begun making headways for performance What gave you this impression? MIR landing? I'm not saying it is a wrong impression, but it doesn't match mine. My impression is that Rust is routinely very fast, often rivals C, and most of the recent headways were surrounding the performance of the compiler, not the resulting programs.
