Comparing compile time and run time performance of Crystal on Windows and Linux. The sample program is https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/blob/b7f3f102fd68fcf9fe4f074513c9e374ec98b492/samples/havlak.cr
Both binaries are built and executed on the same system via WSL (this might cause a little bias, but WSL2 performance is very comparative between Windows and Linux). Hardware is a XPS 9710 with i7 11800H.
;TLDR: Compiler performance is very similar, except for LLVM codegen where Windows has the edge (this is probably due to the newer LLVM version). Runtime performance
