Note that the whole point of Julia is that it saves you the rewrite. There is Julia code running on top supercomputers that gives speed competitive to C/C++/Fortran. You will have to put in some work to get Julia code to be that fast, but it is usually dramatically easier than a rewrite in a different language.
- fault1 5y agoyes, but "speed" in 'top supercomputers' is not "speed" in 'embedded systems'. I do think Julia potentially can crack this space, but the runtime at least historically has not been tailored for it. It does seem like Julia has become more modular lately especially being able to disconnect the JIT (or LLVM ORC). H Hopefully you'll either being able to either defatten or completely remove the runtime dependencies (ala Rust in no-std mode). Each of these is important for different use cases.
- zanellia 5y agoIt's not so easy deploy an algorithm written in Julia on an embedded platform though, is it?
- adgjlsfhk1 5y agoProbably not :)
