> faster on average What kind-of time measurements? What kind-of average? This chart shows some time measurements: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/which-programs-are-fastest.html https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/... :and the geometric mean is faster for the C++ programs, but the median seems faster for the rust programs. Statistical artifacts?

> What kind-of time measurements? What kind-of average? I interpreted the parent to mean a simple average, so I did exactly that: calculated the percentage for each, and averaged them. In the colloquial term, "mean".

  Geometric mean is the implicit default measurement for benchmarking

  typo ? "the colloquial term" is "average", the specific term is "mean".
