Hmm, I would be interested to see where exactly it is that these Julia advocates have claimed it to be "the fastest language"

Start with the false claim of JuliaCon21 banner, "Julia is the fastest high-level programming language", then go to the Julia Discourse and read all the false reports on the internet claiming 3X, 300X, 3000X faster than Fortran/C/Python/... Having a business to run does not justify making false claims.

    It turns out the claim is even is worse than what I remembered. It claims to be the fastest high-performance language. What a shameful Machiavellian act by JuliaComputing for lacking intellectual honesty. https://www.linkedin.com/events/juliacon2021-freeandvirtual6746462348694958080/ https://www.linkedin.com/events/juliacon2021-freeandvirtual6...

well the Julia version runs faster than rust once the bugs were fixed, and a slightly more optimized Julia version finished in under a second.
