Most JVM languages (Kotlin/Scala/Clojure) including Java :) In fact kotlin/java has better peak performance than Go. Main advantage for go is the reduced
memory footprint.
- Thaxll 5y ago> In fact kotlin/java has better peak performance than Go. Not really no.
- dgb23 5y agoSophisticated garbage collection and JIT have a very high ceiling. The CLR and the JVM are incredible technologies.
- ed25519FUUU 5y agoThe thing I hate about the JVM is that I'm always trying to tune it. So many options and nobs to turn. With Go I just run execute the program, no tuning necessary.
- jjtheblunt 5y ago> In fact kotlin/java has better peak performance than Go. Says what benchmark?
- kitd 5y agoThere are many benchmarks showing Java faster than Go. The trick is picking one that people agree is representative. It shouldn't be surprising though. "Peak performance" doesn't include start-up time, and ignores memory. If you discount both those, there's no reason that JITted native code wouldn't be faster than a runtime that includes goroutine scheduling.
- jjtheblunt 5y agounless goroutines aren't in use, which means the generated code probably matches what llvm and C would generate.
