...in a very specific scenario and benchmark. And specifically in a situation where you'd extend Ruby with it.
Really not a fan of this article's title.
- yeah it is clickbaity, but I did find the article interesting
It doesn't outperform C, it outperforms a C extension to Ruby.
good article, but the C in this comparison is being called from Ruby inside a loop, it's not as shocking as the title looks
