Yeah, that's often the case but I wanted to make a conservative claim.
Two personal examples where Julia turns out to be much much faster than Python without me having to do anything but the most naive implementation:
- order of 10 float arrays with order of 1_000_000 elements each. Broadcasting an element-wise function in Julia or just doing a for-loop in Julia is way way faster than a pandas operation like col1 * col2 + col3 etc.
- the first time I tried one of Julia's optimizers (I think Optim.jl) it took 1ms on my problem. Sci-kit took 200ms. That's crazy.
