No. Are you saying it isn't? Please cite your source if so.
My bad, they're x86/ARM64 runtimes.
You could have searched for some benchmarks yourself, instead of thinking you're winning an argument in such a stupid manner.
Note that Jarred himself (bun creator) wouldn't push against this either. Instead, he will sell you the aggregate performance talking point (as another user did), which is why I made my deliberately facetious comment about webshittery.
Why would I do that? I made no claims to its speed. You're the one making claims, so the burden of proof lies with you.
I don't really care what Jarred says though. He hasn't exactly left a good impression with the direction he's taken Bun.
