Nim vs Rust Benchmarks

All benchmarks are informative, also all benchmarks are imperfect and incomplete, for reasons you have specified and many others.

However it is a mistake to then suppose that nothing can be known and just go ahead and use Python to make a AAA first person shooter.

On the flipside slow languages (Python included) are used to script some AAA games.

And no language other than C++ has really found traction for stuff like engines; not even Rust...

What AAA games use Python?

I think Eve Online uses python.

IIRC, Eve used Stackless Python, not normal CPython.

They do, and its caused them a lot of headache, probably was a mistake. If they would have at least used something like C#/Java/Go (go didn't exist at the time) they might not have had to do time-slowdowns to make large battles possible.

Then again maybe it would have slowed down development and never gotten off the ground at all!

I thought only Civ IV used python.
