I have some rather more anecdotal than experimental benchmarks for a couple of classes of problem covering a large number of languages. What is the information OP is after? The summary I have is that D is faster than Go which is faster than Java in some circumstance for some problems. Conversely the reverse is also true for different problems. Of course source development and evolution time is a different metric and D and Go win hands down over Java, but then so does Groovy. And indeed Python. I guess the overall summary is that OP's "any benchmark done officially comparing" is a complete underspecification of the parameters of comparison. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@russel.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
