Quite cool, but for a new runtime of an existing language it might make sense to compare to, y'know, the other[0] runtimes of that language? Even if one has to omit the best, closed ones for lack of access / permission to benchmark?

that is fast! Are you going to do the STAC-M3 benchmarks? Kx use them as evidence that they are the fastest, which is a fair claim as nobody else participates in that particular test :-)
I think one day we'll do that on https://oxide.computer/
1: because we love our friends
2: the gear is great (and ROCEv2 supported which L uses)
ah. cheeky.
Seems like the only point of comparison against a competitive k/q runtime is an MBP run? suggestive to be sure, but would be good to see some other machines, esp. an x86.
Seems wild that the much-lauded "reference engine" leaves ~2x perf improvements on the table.
I’d encourage running the master bench yourself! Super easy

Or on the database side of the house try the h2o.ai base that duckdb excels at
