If you count the newline, that's only 1.22 milliseconds per character! Yes, this example is goofy because there are overheads in process startup, etc, many of which are not the language's fault. But that's the point -- if you had a clue, why would you use this as a benchmark?
Why would you show this to the world as a demo of speed? The most likely explanation is that nobody here knows what is going on; everyone is pretending.
