I don't really know about these questions, but I ran the benchmarks many times various ways and it was consistent. We were previously beating C by a bit on pi_sum, but now we're really kicking it's ass (well, as much as you can ever kick C's ass). I have no idea what's up with Python's integer parsing. We are calling the built-in Python function, which is written in C, so we should take a look at that code, but also we should probably write and int parser in Python and benchmark that instead. Calling the C-implemented intrinsic is not actually comparing to Python.","id":777414,"path":null,"line":null,"html_url":"https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/commit/4b44bd4d2f#commitcomment-777414","url":"https://api.github.com/repos/JuliaLang/julia/comments/777414"}}
