Recent performance results (tables) of AWFY

[rochus-keller]

The results document is useful but didn't change since eight years.

Are there any updated performance tables somewhere like this one and this one comparing different Smalltalk, Lua and JS implementations with Java (and possibly C++)? If there are no current results, is there at least a complete, referencable table somewhere with the latest measurement results, and ideally a brief description of the candidate VMs?

The timeline view referenced in the readme doesn't seem to work anymore, and personally I consider simple tables to be more useful than graphs.

I also had a look at https://arewefastyet.com which seems to have changed and now compares browser JS VMs only.

Yeah...

This is all a "best effort" operation...

Some "unofficial" documents in my tmp folder. tmp means they can disappear without notice:

Great, thank you very much. Why not make the documents "official"?

What is PySOM JIT?

Do you happen to also have results with the Cog/OpenSmalltalk VM?

Which distribution is represented by median_ratio, min_ratio and max_ratio? Is it the distribution of the benchmarks per technology, or different runs of the benchmarks? If the former, what is the advantage of the median over the geomean?
