Any chance you could also benchmark the nimrod programming language?
I think nimrod is a very good contender and it's sad never seeing it being benchmarked when Go, D and Rust are.
I will gladly help you write a benchmark if you wish to pursue this .
- pjmlp 13y agoWhich C compiler would you use as Nimrod lacks a proper compiler?
- dom96 13y agoGCC most likely.
- pjmlp 13y agoThen it would be testing how GCC compiles C code and not Nimrod, right?
- dom96 13y agoI can see what you are trying to say. But it would still be testing the speed of Nimrod, whether the Nimrod compiler compiles Nimrod code to C or to Assembly is irrelevant. The fact is that Nimrod is not C, and we are interested in the speed that Nimrod can achieve.
- logicchains 13y agoIs it possible to use LLVM? That generally compiles faster code for me than GCC, although that may be because my LLVM version is slightly newer.
