The article doesn't cover it but the GC being used by Unity also performs very poorly vs. .NET, and even vs. standalone Mono, because it is using the Boehm GC. Last I heard Unity has no plans to switch IL2CPP to a better GC [1].
It'll be interesting to see how the CoreCLR editor performs. With that big of a speed difference the it might be possible for games to run better in the editor than a standalone Mono/IL2CPP build.
