+Closing as duplicate as far as mono is concerned.
+The surprising result is that the MS runtime is so much slower
+with the mcs-compiled binary. One issue here may be that mcs
+is buggy and will add 4 bytes to the rva data: the size difference may
+cause the MS jit to deoptimize.
+I also suggest that mcs decorate the type name with the size and reuse
+the same type for same sized arrays of data (this allows creating less
+types and accessing less metadata at runtime: note use a size in
+bytes, not elements).
+The benchmark is also buggy, because it doesn't use the array, so the
+runtime could completely remove the allocation.
