That's inaccurate, because traditional sentiment analysis, or rather the entire NLP ecosystem, is a very niche and underoptimized space.

Its not comparing C against Javascript, its comparing Ada against Javascript. Ada is not going to be any faster than javascript because its too niche and therefore underoptimised.

The theoretical minimum computation required by LLMs is far higher than traditional simple NLP algorithms. But the practical computation cost of LLMs will soon be cheaper, because LLMs get so much investment and use, there's massive full-stack optimizations all the way from the GPU to the end libraries.
