Dear all, At Julia site (http://julialang.org/) they placed the results of a battery of small performance tests. The test scripts are referenced in the citation below: " we’ve written a small set of micro-benchmarks in a variety of languages: C , Fortran , Julia , Python , Matlab/Octave , R , JavaScript , Java , Lua , Go , and Mathematica . " I began to translate R code into gretl to do the same battery of tests for Gretl. The script attached. The firs test is about recursion: compute Fibonacci numbers. Either, I wrote very inefficient code, or recursion in Gretl is very slow and needs amending. The attachment also contains non-recursive script for Fibonacci numbers. It works several thousands times faster ( 172092 times on my pc) . Oleh

I began to translate R code into gretl to do the same battery
of tests for Gretl. The script attached.
The firs test is about recursion: compute
Fibonacci numbers.
Either, I wrote very inefficient code, or
recursion in Gretl is very slow and needs amending.
The attachment also contains non-recursive script
for Fibonacci numbers. It works several thousands
times faster (
172092 times on my pc)
