Hey everyone, I’m the maintainer of Dagger.jl. I’ve recently published a [blog post on the JuliaParallel blog](https://juliaparallel.org/news/2022/07/dagger_julius_benchmark/) in response to a [benchmark published by Julius Technologies](https://juliustechco.github.io/JuliusGraph/dev/pages/t007_benchmark.html#Tutorial-7:-Graph-Computing-Benchmark-1), which shows how I optimized Dagger’s performance on the benchmark.

If you’re interested in Dagger’s internals, or want to read about how I investigate performance problems in Dagger’s scheduler, then please give it a read and let me know what you think!

Note: The numbers published in Julius’ benchmark have been updated in response to the improvements to Dagger, but the original numbers (pre-improvements) are in my response blog post for comparison!

As pointed out by @visr , the language around Dask’s `dask.delayed` being portrayed as a JIT mode is incorrect; it actually is the basis of Dagger’s `delayed` functionality, which executes in an AOT manner. A correction is awaiting review at [Dagger Julius: Fix Dask JIT -\> AOT by jpsamaroo · Pull Request #18 · JuliaParallel/juliaparallel.github.io · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaParallel/juliaparallel.github.io/pull/18).
