Julia was written in C++ in early stages if I remember correctly then Julia ;) The point here is that NumPy is heavily fine-tuned and will beat almost any other language implementation out there. The community is bigger and therefore there are much more free hands.
- pdeffebach 6y agoIn Julia's case, there are maybe more "free hands" who can contribute to performance critical code. To contribute to `NumPy` you have to know how to program in C.
- johnmyleswhite 6y agoOne of the important facts about OSS development is that the number of users doesn't scale linearly with the number of "free hands. There are less than 2 FTE's working on Python at any given time these days.
