The longest run I saw when I glanced over it was 10 seconds.
On quadcore 10.71 elapsed seconds for a Java fannkuch-redux program that takes 42.25 cpu seconds.
So: the Java code was not even jit compiled
You must believe that Java is incredibly slow to JIT tiny tiny programs.
while the C# code most likely was AOT compiled
No. There is a separate comparison between C#
I think my point about the benchmarks is still fair, though: FORTRAN wins (last time I checked) more of the funny language shootout benchmarks than any other single language.
Check again:
Someone contributed better C programs -- programmers matter.
Intel Fortran compared to GCC -- language implementations matter.
And on everyone of the other 8 comparisons, the JavaScript V8 program was slower than the corresponding Java program.
The median JavaScript V8 program was 3x slower than the corresponding Java program.
My sister opened a computer store in Hawaii. She sells C shells down by the seashore.
