Comparing a RDBMS with an object database is pretty useless for benchmarking.

I'd be more interested to see comparison to, for example, Realm[1].

There's a open source benchmark here: https://github.com/objectbox/objectbox-performance - last time I checked ObjectBox was several times faster than Realm.

I only see Java source code here. Is ObjectBox Java the same database code as ObjectBox Go?

EDIT: I see the 'objectbox-go' repo has a separate set of perf tests, but only for ObjectBox Go -- not either of the unnamed "NoSQL" competitors, nor for SQLite.

The initial question was about Realm, thus the link to Java. The core of ObjectBox is the same on every platform (C/C++ for maximum speed). We haven't finished the other benchmarks yet. Sorry for teasing with those. We'll be done with those soon and they will be open source.
