The soft I have the most performance issues are Firefox, LibreOffice and Aperçu (don't know its original name, but it's called that way in French -- Apple's PDF viewer). All of them written in different, non-GCed languages. Usuall the problem is abuse of abstraction layers, more than abuse of a GC. And your javascript examples are a good example of that. GCed languages tend to abuse dynamic allocation and dynamic dispatch, even when it's not needed (there is more garbage to deal with). However I agree the idea only a few software need to run fast is bullcrap. |
