Not sure about this, but isn't this something that could be integrated into rustc (or cargo at least) to be something ready to use as bench/test?

I think the reason of comparing two programs in two different languages is exactly to have an idea of how expressive one language can be to generate a performing program given its inputs and outputs are the same, the way on which the code i

No. The JVM should be included too as it is part of what the language needs to run. If you wanna compare including the boot of the real machine, then go for it as to run the JVM you still need a real machine to boot, but then you're ad

Will give my take at it. There is no thing as "a good act" or "a bad act" because these are absolutes. What I _believe_ true is "to act good/bad to". Because they are relative to the recipient(s)[anything
