yeah, I clicked to the colored bar to see the distribution of languages in the repo, expecting to see C/C++ or even Pyhthon, and was shocked to see that 96.5% is javascript.
Well, that explains such an extensive list of features, I guess..
- tomxor 9y agoI'm not saying that JavaScript is an efficient choice, especially when likely depending on a gazillion NPM modules... but do you realise that python is actually an order of magnitude slower than JavaScript these days? unless the body of your performance sensitive code is within a python library python is very slow. I find the problem with most slow javascript is poorly written code and an unnecessarily deep dependency tree (NPM are not flat dependencies !).
- paulddraper 9y agoCPython is of course slow. PyPy is fast-ish (and higher memory). CPython is trivially easy to integrate with fast C though.
