It's not FUD.
I was not aware (I think I am not the only one) that groovy default for
real number is BigDecimal.

The article is great and interesting...
But I'll react on the FUD aspect :-)
(otherwise, it *is* really interesting minus the apple/orange comparison part)
But your Groovy sample is really not reflecting reality, and makes
apples and oranges comparisons.
By default Groovy uses BigDecimal for it's decimal numbers, which
means you're doing a mix of double and BigD arithmetics, which slows
down Groovy terribly, compared to the other languages which use
doubles by default.
So this is a bit misleading.
Add a 'd' suffix to the numbers, and you'll have a more fair
comparison! (ie. 3.4d, 4d, etc)

Hum, nobody answer ?
I have written a blog with a small benchmark that can be instructive:
