Java doesn't have any optimization flags and the debugging info slowdown makes sense I suppose. That is the exact difference between them, GCC with -O3 is almost 100x faster in another test I just did: 10s for Java, 0.1 for C. When you turn off the optimization flags C jumps right at the same 10s figure though.
Really cool interesting stuff!
- fsk 11y agoThat's what I figured - a lot of people who say "Java is as fast as C" aren't doing proper compiler optimizations on their C. I suspected that was true, but I didn't spend the time on a proper test. -O2 or -O3 does some neat stuff like unrolling loops and inlining functions --fast_math is another one I use
