They are all faster than Go in case you haven't been paying attention.

I've been paying a lot of attention and, in my experience (but also according to the highly biased benchmark game), C#/Java/OCaml/Haskell/Go are in the same league, i.e usually 3-10 times slower than C/C++/Ada/Rust/D, and 3-10 times faster than "scripting" languages like Python/PHP/Ruby/Perl.

With (in my experience) go being a little faster than java and haskell, and o'caml being slightly faster than anyone, but nothing significative enough for me to expect an article titled "my Java webapp was too slow so I rewrote it in O'Caml" anytime soon.

Benchmarking is very relative, though. I'd be glad to read evidence showing go is significantly slower than any of those in some domain.

Techempower is where real benchmarks live, the highly biased benchmark game examples aren't all using the latest features or even best algorithms.

You know you can contribute what you consider to be better examples — https://salsa.debian.org/benchmarksgame-team/benchmarksgame/...

> …or even best algorithms…

Wouldn't that make the algorithm the difference ;-)

Thanks a lot, didn't know techempower. Go seems to behave pretty well in these benchmarks, though.

You seem to be saying that what you see on the benchmarks game matches your experience, which makes your "highly biased" claim kind-of strange.

Please show something on that website that is "highly biased".
