> So I do apologize to the person. I don't to the code. I wanted to verify whether my gut was correct (minimal amount of output, and stdout is in fact buffered - output shouldn't move the needle) and asked Dmitry to rerun the C test on the same system, but this time with the output code completely commented out: real 0m0.011s (+- 0.01) user 0m0.011s (+- 0.01) sys 0m0.001s
Apologies to the code might be in order :) The source of the JIT engine's edge is, as Dmitry and Andi said, the CPU-specific optimizations that gcc -O2 doesn't generate, and therefore it can actually be faster than a generic native executable in some (I would guess not all that common) cases.
