I was going to make a general comment about this too. It’s a huge penalty for Java too and has no correlation for how well it performs outside of toy benchmark

… unless you’re using Java in the same way, such as an Azure Function or AWS Lambda. Or simply as a command-line tool. IMHO, VM startup time should be included and the first few passes (before JIT kicks in) should also be included. Java has supposedly “nearly C-like performance” until you read the fine print. (This should apply to C# as well.)

> a huge penalty Is that just your assumption or have you measured that penalty for this tiny tiny program? Might "the JVM's slow start time" in this case be insignificant? https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/sometimes-people-just-make-up-stuff.html#jvm-startup-time https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...
