It’s my first time getting name brand in a while, but it’s possible it’s like OEM tires, where the tires that come with your car don’t have as much tread as a new tire you bought yourself, even of the same model.

I actually just bought some Panasonic CR2032 and opened the packaging yesterday and I did notice they were heavier 😁

Get brand name CR2032, the cheap stuff doesn’t supply enough voltage and electronics don’t like em.

True, I didn’t structure my sentence correctly.

It gets to compete with Java and Python because it’s also JIT is what I meant to say.

Absolutely, it’s just one aspect of it, benchmarks are always narrow in scope. Some languages may be good at some things and worse at others.

Oh PHP is hands down one of the slowest languages out there. It’s just convenient because it’s easy to host, but it’s awful to use and it’s really slow.

Here, have a chart:

In this chart, where the benchmark is calculating digits of π, Java is faster than JS, but there are cases where it’s the opposite.

Node.js is really not a bad backend language, since it’s JIT, it’s actually faster than Python and Java in most cases.

Rust will definitely have the advantage of being a compiled language though.

Source: I write both Java and TS backend code, have done benchmarks.

Or a name

And those same people will often also refuse to pay for services.

It’s a pay or become the product world out there, site hosting ain’t free.

The Linux kernel is sponsored by many, many large companies who also contribute heavily to it. It is not lacking funds at all.

I think they were just referring to the X in the name.

Gotta love circular reporting.

Correct, this two-sided discourse is due to a massive lack of communication on Mozilla’s part, leaving room for speculation.

I like it

Could you cite the reports for us?

Yeah MATE is lighter but the margin is small since it’s basically GNOME 2.

Still is about as light performance and memory footprint wise when talking about GNOME 46.

Base GNOME isn’t much larger than MATE.
