[$] Julia 1.6 addresses latency issues
On March 24, version 1.6.0 of the Julia
programming language was released. This is the
first feature release since 1.0 came out in 2018. The new release
significantly reduces the "time to first plot", which is a common source of
dissatisfaction for newcomers to the language, by parallelizing
pre-compilation, downloading packages more efficiently, and reducing the
frequency of just-in-time re-compilations at run time.
