read one billion rows of city: temperature duples and calculate the min/max/avg. i can't say i like it as it's almost purely a test of string parsing speed and few things else.
the results are staggering though: the naive java solution with Files.lines and stream collector takes 4m13s, while the currently fastest solutions take less than 8s.
it's also interesting that graalvm takes most of the top spots.

i feel like most of my apps are home-cooked meals.
