Update the Go example to use 1.1 :D
- idupree 14y agoY'know, That GCC is six years old.[1] Go, Rust, Dart and V8 didn't even exist when it was released. Maybe update that if anything? [1] http://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html http://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html
- danieldk 14y agoAnd since it's a Mac, it is probably llvm-gcc (GCC with an LLVM backend). A colleague/friend who is developing neural network software recently switched from gcc 4.2.1 to 4.5 (which is still old) and got a 50% speed increase without touching any code.
- SiVal 14y agoThat's the first thing I thought, too. I'd like to see both Go 1.1 and Go 1.0.3 for a comparison (on this benchmark). I'm hoping that before long we'll be able to count on Go being within a factor of 2 of plain C by most benchmarks. And I'd like to see CPython 3.3 in addition to PyPy. But it's quite interesting as is. Thanks.
- igouy 14y agoIt's been just 2 days since go1.1beta1 was released, the other language implementations seem more out-of-date than that.
- reneky 14y agoThere are more low-hanging performance fruits in the immature languages. That said, of course all should be up to date.

- codygman 14y agoThat doesn't negate the fact that I want to see the performance of go1.1 :D Truthfully though, I didn't notice the others were out of date. I bet OP will update them all :P
