If you exclude stuff like SSE intrinics, it's usually 50% slower.

To be clear, you're saying for the benchmark tasks with the worst performing Java programs; the Java programs perform worse than the Go programs for the benchmark tasks with the worst performing Go programs?

What about the median performance benchmark tasks?

I'm saying that Golang is one of the worst-performing compiled languages, and even Golang is faster than Java for the respectively fastest program on the page I've referenced. Other compiled languages are even better than Golang.

The Java programs median shows slightly faster than the Go programs median, in the first chart on that page.
