Because imagemagick, julia and other specialized programs already provide the advanced algorithms that I need. Unfortunately, julia is not a good team player.
- krull10 8y agoThe Julia tooling is not currently designed for repeatedly creating new REPL/interpreter instances to quickly solve one small problem. What it excels at is rapidly solving the same problem many times within one REPL/interpreter (since after the first time the code will be compiled), or for longer computations where the overhead of the initial compilation does not matter. It would be great if it could also get fast at the use case you are interested in, but this isn’t currently what it excels at.
