Is there some kind of standard benchmarking system or outline or something? I am looking at go, llvm, d and other languages and i wanted to know how they fair in execution time, memory usage, etc.
I found https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/ but the code is NOT THE SAME. One example is a C++ source is < 100 lines while the C source is >650. I hardly call that fair. Another test in its source has the stupid mistake of putting a lock inside the loop while other languages put it outside.
So i wanted to know some test i might consider looking at/running that perhaps uses no nonstandard or even complex libs. Like implemented completely inside a single source file. Something fair.
Benchmarking is not entirely about being fair - it's about choosing something for your own workload, within your restraints.
If you want to use the alioth shootout site, you can still get interesting information if you exclude solutions that are too verbose, or too slow (the exact balancing depends on what you want to do - do you write code that runs for five seconds, or one that will occupy a dozen computers for five months). Look at the most concise examples for one particular problem to see the general problem structure - then see what typical optimizations people applied to make the code run faster.
Having a benchmark with THE SAME code misses the point, because you need different things to help in different languages; Java has GC, which means that it will do well on the trees test, whereas you need custom memory allocation in C/C++ to compete with that (and that particular benchmark is structured so that standard malloc does really poorly), for the spectral-norm one, you need non-boxed double arrays...
If you want to come up with your own solutions, have a go at Project Euler - there are a lot of problems that do not depend on complex libraries, yet are challenging to optimize. Otherwise, try to come up with scoring criteria that you consider adequate to filter or rank the existing contributions in the shootout (or outside it - for example, there are ShedSkin and Cython solutions to some of the problems, which are "unofficial" because these languages are not included).
