C beats Rust and Jai by a wide margin when rescaled, argues dev in DHH rewrite debate
lucasmeijer · x · 2026-10-20
In the DHH-initiated rewrite challenge debate, lucasmeijer questions whether msaraivaf's rewrite matches the C port in Basecamp's GitHub repo, noting its numbers relative to Rust look low: applying the same rescaling to her Jai numbers, C still comes out on top by a significant margin. He also asks if Jai might be released next year.
