What are the fastest programming languages? C vs. C++ vs. Rust
Here is the image about the fastest programming languages and many more benchmarks:
https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/which-programs-are-fastest.html
Tests were ran with:
gcc (Ubuntu 9.2.1-17ubuntu1~18.04.1) 9.2.1 20191102
g++ (Ubuntu 9.2.1-17ubuntu1~18.04.1) 9.2.1 20191102
rustc 1.41.0 (5e1a79984 2020-01-27)
Please remember that the fastest language still isn't automatically the best. There are many more factors to choosing a programming language. Most of the time, slightly faster or slower does not matter at all but language features/safety/speed of development/ecosystem.
Also yes, Java wouldn't win those benchmarks, it's not meant to have a high performance runtime. It makes the programmer faster, not the code. All other languages are probably slower anyway so they wouldn't make an impact in the benchmark's game.
