  2. …And if you need to do the same in Julia, you should also pre-compile or some other method like https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl (their demo shows loading a database, with subsequent loads after the first one taking roughly ~0.2% of…

  3. Then precompile or use https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl . But 1.7 seconds at first startup isn't even enough time to articulate a serious thought, much less write any good code. I struggle to believe it's a dent in anyones workflow.

    comment by shele · 2021-06-22 · in Is Julia Really Fast?
  12. While I definitely agree, I'd say Julia is totally fine for short scripts too. Just spin up https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl and you can launch lots of short scripts without excessively restarting julia. There's also…

  19. …if you do find yourself running lots of scripts and paying this penalty all the time, I'd suggest https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl as a great way around these pains.

  20. You may want to look at [DaemonMode.jl]( https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl ), which spins up a persistent Julia process in the background so you don't have to pay the TTFP penalty more than once, even when shell-scripting.
    comment by stillyslalom · 2021-02-14 · in Julia 1.6: what has changed since Julia 1.0?
  21. I think for that, you might want to look into https://github.com/dmolina/DaemonMode.jl . This is essentially a just a clever utility for keeping a background julia session running that you feed scripts to, rather than spinning up a new…
