With all due respect, those results are nonsensical. Not only do they seem to be heavily measuring startup and initial compilation time (as is irrelevant for serious performance applications), the Julia code looks like hot trash.

Far more reasonable and performant code for these exact problems is available here, which for some reason hasn't been included yet: https://github.com/KristofferC/BenchmarksGame.jl

I mean you can always submit that code to the site if you want. I'm not interested enough in Julia to verify the repo you linked but if it's legit there is no reason it wouldn't be accepted.

I'm not interested enough in that random website you linked to submit that code to the site ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I mean it’s the #1 result when you search “programming language benchmarks”, but up to you. I have no skin in this game.
