Golang and Java have similar performance characteristics. I would not put it in the same class as C/CPP/Rust.

I didn't realize Go was so far behind C in terms of performance.

Like REALLY behind, this surprises me a lot actually. Thanks for showing me that awesome benchmark page :D

Presumably less startup time and JIT.

The run times are seconds not micro-seconds.

How many seconds do you suppose startup time is for those tiny programs?

How many seconds do you suppose JIT is for those tiny programs?

Depends on if the Java code is ahead of time compiled or not. The AOT compiler is included in the latest JDKs.

Nice, good to know the JIT is doing something. Will be interesting to track the performance of this over time.

And that's graalvm-ce not the enterprise edition.
