Programming language comparison by reimplementing the same transit data app
Oh, hey, didn't expect to see this here. Thanks for submitting! I tried a few days ago but didn't really get any traction.[0]<p>Since I submitted it, though, I posted it to /r/rust and got a lot of feedback. At the time, rust and dotnet were comparable and at the top of the list, with ~10k req/sec. Now rust is far and away the most performant at ~20k req/sec! I also was able to improve Go's performance 30% or so. Still, I want to let the other communities chip in and see if I can improve them.<p>I was actually just in the midst of exploring how to improve Elixir's results. I'm finding I can almost double my requests per second from simply switching the JSON encoder from Jason to Jiffy. That sort of surprised me since Jason is the de-facto standard, and I thought was super fast.<p>[0] <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33291604" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33291604</a>
