Execute C code Instruction -- 1 clock cycle ( 10^8 per second)
|
Run a client side C subroutine -- can do upto 10^6 instructions in time (few milliseconds) that is significant for user
|
JavaVM Interpreter -- roughly 50 times slower than C
|
JavaVM Just in Time Compiler (effectively compile JavaVM in real time) -- roughly 2 to 8 times slower than C
|
Native Java Compiler -- same speed as C
|
Perl Interpreter (but does process whole program before interpreting) -- 500 times slower than C except in runtime
|
Tcl, JavaScript "true" Interpreters - 5000 times slower than C
-
Can still do 100-1000 instructions in time that users don't notice!
