What others have already said. Plus, the JVM is an impressive bit of work. The runtime optimization is first class and does an amazing job. Benchmarks always lie. Mostly because they ask the wrong question. You don't care if one program or another is 5% faster. Software engineering is about the cost over the life-cycle, that includes hardware to run it on, and all the software engineering effort to implement and maintain the code. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
