  1. andrears andrears Python

    the benchmark game disagree: !python vs csharp http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u64/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=python&lang2=csharp&box=1

      @andrears: The speed !python provides to programmers RAD-wise is much faster than C# or Mono for me.

      @andrears That would be a comparison of the two VMs, not !python language vs. !csharp language, no?

      @ilowe Indeed, but they are the most used VMs. A comparison between CPython and Stackless !python would be nice, though.

      @andrears I'm pretty sure that Stackless is the faster !python; OTOH, PyPy is apparently doing really well on benchmarks these days

      @ilowe: Has anyone seen the latest benchmarks for Unladen Swallow? Apart from a few minor regressions, it's doing great! !python

      @techwizrd I'm not saying C# is better than !python, just saying it's faster. Generally, C is faster than lisp, but I'm still a lisp fan :P

      @techwizrd but is it north american or european?? !python

      @andrears @techwizrd let's not forget that execution speed is often overrated; !python and !lisp speed is more about increased productivity

      @andrears: I'm a Lisp and !python fan, but as a language, I think !python and Lisp are much better than C#. Execution speed aside.

      @ilowe: Extremely true. My point is that !python for me is so many times more productive, that the execution speed is negligible.
