Re: [ANN] Hash Table Shootout 2: Rise of the Interpreter Machines

For the C++ case, you may wish to try the "-stdlib=libc++ " clang option (to compile with the LLVM libc++ library, rather than the 7 year old version of GNU libstdc++ that Apple ship)

Tcl beat C++ and Lua.
Now that I have your attention :)

I did benchmarks for LuaHashMap which is a thin wrapper around Lua's
C-API to provide hash tables in C. Curious how other hash tables
compared, I did a hash table benchmark shootout which kind of turned
into a language shootout (though with a twist that everything is based
in C).

I think the results are interesting and in some cases surprising. And
language wars are always a hoot, right? :)

Please check it out and help spread the word. (Maybe this will help
raise more awareness of Lua.)
