There's no good reason for C to beat C++. Even if there were,
it would be simple to rewrite the C++ bottleneck in C style.
Likewise, there's no good reason for C to beat D either.
I was surprised by the Java results once they started beating C
at certain benchmarks years ago. But the fact is it does.

It usually does in memory intensive benchmark that aren't
multithreaded. Java's GC is a free shot of concurrency that C
won't get.
