While this is impressive, it is neither the same algorithm, nor even the same type of language (I already know Julia is much slower than C). I don’t think it is much of a relevant comparison for a benchmark when almost nothing is the same except for the expected answer. Perhaps if Gauss Legendre were implemented in Mathematica it would only take 3 seconds! There’s no way for us to know.
