And you used only a single space in each.
Suggestion: run the test for spaces 1e4, 2e4, and 3e4 for all three languages. Then we can do some comparisons.
For additional bonus bring in Python and Ruby, maybe even Java.
For additional additional bonus, do not compare only running times but also memory use and "executable" (whatever that means for each language) sizes.
