Figure 2.

For this plot, each of the seven Hello World executables (one Perl executable + six executables created by source-to-source translation of the Haxe Hello World source code into the corresponding target language) were launched 120 times. The left panel shows the time usage of the Hello World programs on a Linux machine, while the right panel shows the corresponding analysis on a computer running the macOS operating system. The minimum, maximum, standard deviation, average, and median time usage of these runs for the different program versions and conversions are listed in Table 3.
