The article links to a presumably extremely specialised benchmark[0] with some surprising results. To me as a simple dev, at least:

Java (JIT) beats C++ and even Scala.

What is Julia HO and why is it so ridiculously fast?

The speed difference between Python and Pypy is massive. Is there any reason not to use Pypy? Shouldn't it be the standard?
