Make PR to kostya/benchmarks repo #29

Closed dumblob closed 1 year ago

dumblob commented 1 year ago

The repo https://github.com/kostya/benchmarks is kind of a state-of-the-art of non-rigorous but "closer to real practice" benchmarking.

It would be great to see Cyber there :wink:.

I don't really see the point of comparing to mostly compiled languages. Cyber is fast as a VM interpreter. I don't want to stop anyone from doing it though just my initial opinion

  1. It is actually not mostly compiled languages - see Ruby, Java, Python, Lua, Racket, Kotlin, F#/.NET, Ocaml (both interpreted & compiled), Julia, Haskell, Node.js, Elixir, and I could go on (I did not count, but it feels that most are actually interpreted).
  2. The benchmark is focused on real-world perception where - whatever your social bubble is - interpreted languages compete with compiled languages all the time.

Feel free to reopen this issue so that someone can pick it up if not you :wink:.
