Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

I compared the performance of numerical computations facilitated by different acceleration toolkits... And here are the results!
In fact, Taichi's compiler relies on heavy underlying engineering to enable high performance. In the aforementioned code snippet, the summation is actually an atomic operation, which cannot be parallelized and is thus subject to limited operation efficiency. The most commonly used method of parallel computing optimization in vector summation is reduction, which is one of the must-have skills to learn parallel computing. The benchmark report concludes that, thanks to automatic reduction optimization implemented by its compiler, Taichi achieves a performance comparable to manually implemented CUB and way better than Numba.

ETH Zürich uses Taichi Lang in its Physically-based Simulation course (AS 21)
Some are uncertain about Taichi Lang's performance against other frameworks such as CUDA, and would require a comprehensive benchmarking report. Actually, we published a systematic benchmarking report when we released Taichi Lang v1.0.0. Taichi has more or less comparable performance to CUDA. But, for sure, you will have much fewer lines of code with Taichi Lang!
