What's the performance like?

The comment at the end

OO language with a static type system that feels as low-friction as a dynamic one

Sounds nice, but does the performance act like a dynamic language or is it super speedy? I'd be happy with half the speed of C.

I'm still on the lookout for a language that feels as low-friction as a dynamic language but could do some form of iterable.map in parallel on all cores transparently.

There's a blog post on paralellism in Crystal https://crystal-lang.org/2019/09/06/parallelism-in-crystal/ but that's a fair few years ago now.
