Look for the top:
http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=all&calc=Calculate&xfullcpu=1&xmem=0&xloc=0&binarytre
es=1&chameneosredux=1&fannkuch=1&fasta=1&knucleotide=1&mandelbrot=1&meteor=0&nbody=1&nsieve=1&nsievebits=1&partialsums=
1&pidigits=1&recursive=1&regexdna=1&revcomp=1&spectralnorm=1&hello=0&sumcol=1&threadring=1
with memory performance taken into consideration as well, it only gets worse:

Yes, I'm aware theoretically a JITted program running for long should be able to
be extra tuned on the fly and drop irrelevant parts to run faster.  That isn't
reflected in the charts, of course.
