<ArneBab>I repeated my geometric mean slowdown calculation with the most recent data from ecraven, and found that Guile is about 3x slower than Chez, 2x slower than Bigloo and 1.9x slower than Racket.

<ArneBab>For reference, Racket is about 10x slower than C in the benchmarksgame,¹ so Guile might be about 20x slower than C — and 30% faster than Pythons. And Chez might be about 6x slower than C — that’s about as fast as SBCL (5x C). ¹ https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/box-plot-summary-charts.html

<weary-traveler>surprised with erlang results. didn't think it'd be worse than python

<weary-traveler>and didn't think java and julia would be about similar and beat haskell

<weary-traveler>sbcl does reasonably well

<weary-traveler>though maybe the median lines for those is still within the iqr for haskell

<weary-traveler>ArneBab: where can the programs for the geometric mean benchmark be found
