Beats it by how much? Computers today are basically an accretion disc of suboptimal decisions made for the sake of backwards compatibility. You would have to demonstrate a huge leap in performance to wipe the slate clean.
- marcosdumay 8y agoI'm not sure by how much. Currently there is another tread here about people getting out of their way to push into userspace, on each application, all the crazy network protocol handling. Developers seem quite ok with that, as much that I feel out of place bothering about the complexity. We also have a lot of people rewriting legacy stuff on Rust, just for bit of extra confidence. Currently, people have got out of their way to create artificial intelligence guided real-time optimizers that converts von Neumann code into graph-machine code on x86, because it performs better. But it gets very close to optimum usage of the graph machine, so there is no need for most people to actually learn it.
