This benchmark is rubbish, and the author doesn't know what he is talking about. "Knowing a little about Matlab should really be surprised to see that it performed just as fast as Julia and Fortran. This is due to the heavily vectorized and optimized Matlab assembly routine. " Complete gibberish. Matlab (like Octave and the parts of Julia tested here) is made of Fortran parts. Were this an actual benchmark it would have spectacularly outperformed Matlab, Octave and Julia.
