Care to share some examples? I know there are a few specific ones like sorting but every benchmark I've ever seen has c coming out ahead in most tests, especially when c++ features are used.
> Fortran used to be the language for what we now call HPC
Again that was a fairly specific case usually only seen in scientific applications.
From your other post:
> It is not unusual for a C++ or Rust program to be 30% faster than the C program it replaces. The reasons are worth studying.
Citation needed, this is so far off from every benchmark I've ever seen it's laughable.
