Hello all, I've found this page by an acidennt and thought it might be useful for those who are undecided about the language to use.. (Nine Language Performance Round-up) http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=5602&page=3 What do you think about that Java 1.4.2 almost gained the same score as VC++? (except trigonometry) And if you know any other unbiased benchmark results (more representative) I'd appreciate a link. Thanks.

As had been discussed when it first was published, that's really a naive benchmark.

What do you mean by "unbiased", exactly? [smile].

Well, as I said, I just encountered it accidentally, so I wanted to know your opinions about that one. ;)
And as for what do I mean by "unbiased", well a really representative benchmark test, not sponsored by any company that might benefit of it (MS, Sun, etc..).
Do you know any?
Thanks in advance.

Maybe I'm interweb challenged but I can't find the actual code they ran the benchmark on. I want to see exactly what IO they used.
The sourcecode for all the platfomrs can be found here

I didn't have time to try it myself, though.
