- rirze 5mo agoJulia only cares about numerical performance, and in that regime, it’s pretty fast. So not generally fast, no.
- postflopclarity 5mo agoyou are right one has to be careful to avoid the GC and dynamic dispatch, but if you do it can for sure reach the same level as C++. with tightly optimized Julia code there is little to no overhead over any other low-level language.
