Looks like in regards to RAM, Julia is the new Java -- doesn't care for 5x larger RAM consumption. (I actually like it, RAM is cheap nowadays).

- ChrisRackauckas 5y agoJulia v1.8 will have a pretty big change in terms of the runtime, in that the runtime will no longer necessarily need to have LLVM attached to it: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/41936 https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/41936
- DNF2 5y agoIsn't this mainly because the first run includes compilation? The compiled code should use little memory, if correctly written.
- ChrisRackauckas 5y agoYes, most of it is the compilation.
- dunefox 5y agoI agree, more RAM for much more speed is an acceptable tradeoff.
