- jpfr 7y agoThat’s LLVM as a JIT compiler. In pure byte-code interpreter mode, Julia is quite more responsive.
- gugagore 7y agoThere's also compilation that happens in Julia. Like the type inference. Which is to say, the time isn't just spent in LLVM.
- gugagore 7y agoNo, that's not why. You think there's considerable time spent in parsing? It's all code generation that takes time, which is the same thing that makes Julia powerful.
