In JIT, the execution times of LPython-compiled functions are at least as short as equivalent Numba functions.The speed of JIT compilation, itself, is slow in some cases because it depends on a C compiler to generate optimal binary code. For algorithms with rich data structures like `dict` (hash maps) and `list`, LPython shows much faster speed than Numba. In AoT compilation for tasks like the Dijkstra algorithm, LPython beats equivalent C++ code very comfortably. For an array-based implementation of the Floyd-Warshall algorithm, LPython generates code almost as fast as C++ does. +The benchmarks support the claim that LPython is competitive with its competitors in all features it offers. In JIT, the execution times of LPython-compiled functions are at least as short as equivalent Numba functions. The speed of JIT compilation, itself, is slow in some cases because it currently depends on a C compiler to generate optimal binary code. For algorithms with rich data structures like `dict` (hash maps) and `list`, LPython shows much faster speed than Numba. In AoT compilation for tasks like the Dijkstra algorithm, LPython beats equivalent C++ code very comfortably. For an array-based implementation of the Floyd-Warshall algorithm, LPython generates code almost as fast as C++ does. -The main takeaway is that LPython/LFortran generate fast code by default. Our benchmarks show that it's straightforward to write high-speed LPython code. We hope to raise expectations that LPython output will be in general at least as fast as the equivalent C++ code. Users love Python because of its many productivity advantages: great tooling, easy syntax, and rich data structures like lists, dicts, sets, and arrays. Because any LPython program is also an ordinary Python program, all the tools -- debuggers and profilers, for instance -- just work. Then, LPython delivers run-time speeds, even with rich data structures at least as short as alternatives in most cases. In the future, LPython will allow user-defined implementations of data structures for those rare cases where the versions shipped with LPython are not good enough. +The main takeaway is that LPython/LFortran generate fast code by default.
