> Definitely 15000 times faster than MATLAB as claimed by JuliaComputing can be achieved with such seemingly concrete and realistic benchmarks.

I believe you're talking about NASA Launch Services engineers claiming Julia's ModelingToolkit simulations outperformed Simulink by 15,000x? That claim was of course not made by Julia Computing or anyone affiliated by Julia Computing, which is pretty clear because the person who makes the claim very clearly describes his affiliation at the beginning of the video. The source is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQpqsmwlfY0, at 12:55. You did watch the whole video to understand the application and the caveats etc. instead of just reading the headline and immediately coming to a conclusion, right?
