One point needs correcting though - nowhere in the article I say that node is outperforming C, on the contrary - I stressed that I didn't use any flags so that people don't come to a conclusion that C would be always slower, and I explicitly mentioned not get fixated on such benchmarks.

What it was meant to show is that V8 is *good enough* to even consider it for the job :)

Thanks for posting your results!

Since I was already set on writing in-browser particle life, I didn't benchmark C code with different flags.
