benchmarks? java vs .net

[King Raz]

The shootout site has benchmarks comparing different languages. It
includes C# Mono vs Java but not C# .NET vs Java. So I went through
all the benchmark on the site ...

Just to keep the post on topic for my friends at comp.lang.c++, how do
I play default windows sounds with C++?

This guy had trolled the comp.lang.java. programmer and comp.lang.c++
newsgroup for many weeks with pretentious post about the performance
comparison of C++ and Java.
The comparison was done in a not scientific way with only purpose of get
replies.
To get replies he/she send many replies to each message he/she receives.

For reach is target he/she changed his/hers email address many times to
avoid killfiles.

I suggest the people not interested who have thunderbird to install the
"Right click ingore/watch thread" extension and use it for ignoring this
thread.

This got to be the funniest post. She (or is that he?) cross-posts
(spams?) three newsgroups with the subject "Please don't feed the
troll" and this post was the only response to my thread. Thanks for
feeding me. She/He also quotes my entire post so anyone who missed my
first post now read it :) Now I know at least one person read my
post; that is the brilliant: Andrea Francia, for Italy :)

Were you born this stupid or did someone hit you with a baseball bal?

Arrrgh. I meant "from Italy"

In any case, if you think I am a troll, why would you feed me by
responding to my post? Why would you quote my entire post, advertising
it for free? People who missed the first post now must have read my
post, thanks to Andrea Francia.

Well, it seems, the programming-related newsgroups have some of
the dumbest people on USENET. I wonder why?

!Thanks for the respam. I'd have never been aware of this
post had it not been for your announcement and sage advice.

I'm sure k.rzi thanks you for reposting a link to his site.

Yes. I have ported a variety of benchmarks and found there is no significant
difference between the performance of .NET and Java. The one result that
stood out was .NET being 2x faster at the Mersenne Twister PRNG.

..NET is twice slower in four benchmarks: binarytrees, mandelbrot,
regexdna, sumcol. .NET was twice faster only in trig related
benchmark.

Ok, I did try compiled version on .NET and it was faster than
uncompiled version.

9.539s (uncompiled)
5.165s (compiled)

the java version was 3.956s

I changed the line to

using (StreamReader r = new
StreamReader(Co nsole.OpenStand ardInput(8192)) )

Buffereing 8192 bytes now?

It made no difference.

4.861s (unbuffered)
4.839s (buffered)

still two times slower.

Use buffered IO and .NET becomes ~10% faster than Java.

Doesn't this line mean

http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp...ng=csharp&id=2

Stream s = Console.OpenSta ndardOutput(102 4);

it's buffering already, 1024 bytes?

vs this java version

http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp...ng=javaxx&id=0

it's 3.4 times slower.
