There is no such thing on that page. You see 30x times win for go only where program uses very small amount of memory.
When memory consumption is big(regex-dna and binary trees), memory footprint is very similar for both scala and go(+-10%).
- lazyjones 14y agoMakes me wonder why people don't use Free Pascal more ... It shares many of Go's advantages described here (simple language, powerful libraries) and is frequently faster and uses less memory (8KB memory in 4 cases where Go uses 700-1200KB!) on the Benchmark Game programs. It's probably the C-like syntax that tips the scales every time ...
