It would be nice to see the performance benchmarks on Factor too.

Incidentally, they do implement the benchmark game's programs (and then some): http://gitweb.factorcode.org/gitweb.cgi?p=factor/.git;a=tree...

They just don't want to submit them yet -- work being done on the compiler and such: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/2krih/factor_90... (granted, this link is a year old)

For some hand-spun results, you can check out http://factor-language.blogspot.com/search?q=shootout or http://factor-language.blogspot.com/search?q=benchmark. I think the most recent results for Factor's benchmark suite are at http://factor-language.blogspot.com/2009/08/global-float-unb....

For the sake of pedantry, the month-old http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9ukis/improved_... confirms the year-old reddit post. I would've edited my post, but alas, ran out of time. I'll stop flooding with links now.

Yeah. I was hoping at least Forth would be on there, but no luck, I guess.
