I have stopped trusting the aforementioned link because they play dirty games with benchmarks, most of the times. Let me give you an example; https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/program/regexredux-python3-2.html and https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/program/regexredux-perl-4.html The Python code uses ctypes, thus the unfair marginal difference. I have seen the same unjust comparison with the majority of the examples and decided to stop relying on this page for validating programming language performance.

Let me give you an example: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/program/regexredux-python3-1.html https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/... *** You ignored the Python code that does not use ctypes. > I have seen the same unjust comparison with the majority of the examples… No you have not. There are 10 different tasks. pidigits accepts the use of third-party libraries (GMP) regex-redux accepts the use of third-party libraries (PCRE) That's 2 out of 10.
