Fun With Just-In-Time Compiling: Julia, Python, R and pqR

Read Original

The article details a performance benchmark of solving a Project Euler problem (finding the smallest number divisible by all numbers in a factorial) across multiple languages and JIT compilation techniques. It compares execution times for Julia, standard Python, Python with Numba, PyPy, R, R with the compiler package, pqR, and pqR with the compiler package, analyzing the speed improvements offered by just-in-time compilation.
