We compare the median run times of the agent-based simulation code discussed in the article titled The Bitter Truth: Python 3.11 vs Cython vs C++ Performance for Simulations published on Dec 19, 2022 against a corresponding Common Lisp implementation.
The Common Lisp implementation is (emphatically) written in non-idiomatic Lisp closely following the reference implementations, with some type declarations and compiled using SBCL.
The fastest implementation turns out to be Lisp, with a slight advantage over C++ (see table below).
