The author has a "lack of equal experience in the three evaluated languages", especially C, but is comparing them for development time and SLOC based on a sample size of one developer and one very small program. He rewrites a distributed program as a threaded one, because Rust and Go didn't have a distributed computing library, but says Go and Rust have "similar performance" in HPC. He says he was surprised at the C performance, but there's no investigation of a cause. Maybe just because C is slow... I don't mean to be overly critical, but these results in the paper mean absolutely nothing. It's a waste of time.
