I think what you’re seeing is that …
I’d also re-emphasize what Scott Ribe already said. We’re *not* seeing the swiftness of Swift itself, or lack of it. We’re seeing the performance of a particular snapshot of Swift in a pre-release state. *No* lessons can be learned now. For all we know, there is massive compiler debugging code turned on in the Swift/Obj-C interface specifically. Or, for all we know, there is a performance problem that’s going to be fixed for the release, but it’s not the highest priority right now.
There isn’t the slightest reason to believe that current performance tells us anything useful about the eventual release version.
Seriously, we’re developers here. Would we be prepared to have our apps' early public betas performance tested, and the results published as final judgements?
