If you read the article you'll learn that in the end the author not only states there isn't any practical difference in the results that the author pulled with their ad-hoc test examples but also points out which non-performant choices were intentionally left in the last example that lead to the 40ms difference (which, again, the author states in no uncertain terms is meaningless)
I don't know how anyone can look at benchmarks of two ad-hoc tests with one of them being intentionally and openly sub-optimal and from that point automatically jump to conclusions over performance traits of a whole programming language. Crazy stuff.
