Since we know Mojo isn't open-sourced yet, how much of benchmarks we can trust?

Mojo is a Python superset, Python is written in C therefore mojo is written in C.

I don't know what that rust library they benchmarked against is but given that they claim to have performed 50% better I would be sceptical. Given that most sources benchmark rust, C and C++ at about the same level.
