+1 Nim is a really nice and simple language. Extremely easy FFI and Python-like. For me, using Nim and Julia to write small "scripts" for my data science (student) works (processing 10Gb-20Gb of data) makes me feel quite productive compared to something like Go (too `ugly` for me), Python (too slow)

Are there any Nim benchmarks vs. Go, Crystal, Python, Rust, etc.?
