Erjang


Just took Erjang (www.erjang.org) for a spin.

I ran the ring_test example and above is a simple plot of performance compared with Erlang.

First is java with -server option second java, then erlang and finally erlang with hipe.
Note that in this case hipe is actually slower, and java with server option is also slower.

I think it is amazing that Erjang is only ~30% slower, great work

A JVM-based application usually runs significantly faster after a while; is that taken into account with these numbers? My numbers http://bit.ly/6pIElb show that erjang is slightly faster; but I am naturally biased :-)...
