As for "I think it would be move productive if you ...", that's just rude. I wasn't criticizing Fil-C, just pointing out an inaccuracy.
"That's just rude" - oh my, never though asking for evidence of a performance problem on HN would be "rude". And yes, if something is actually 5x slower, it's very likely a performance bug that can be fixed, as FillC's author has made it clear in several opportunities.
It's sad that people lie here. It's commonly recognized that programs run 1.5-5 times slower.

Another lie from someone who doesn't even know what the program is called.
