Evaluating Language Performance when Handling Large String
To investigate how different programming languages handle building large strings, I created nearly identical programs for each language. Each program constructs a string through a series of iterations, with each iteration appending a character representing the iteration number. The entire text is then saved to a file in one go.
Notes
To accelerate the string building process, I utilized the string building feature available in each language or its equivalent. (In the C language, custom functions were implemented to simulate this feature.)
Only the time taken to generate the string is measured.
No initial capacity value was set for the string building.
The generated file is saved in a single batch without being divided into multiple chunks.
To ensure a fair comparison, I avoided using any optimization tricks or advanced features that could enhance the programs' performance, relying solely on the default language features.
The programs were created with the assistance of AI.
Please note that this is not a professional benchmarking test, but rather a humble attempt to explore the patterns of each language's capabilities and performance.
