Benchmarking programming languages using the Leibniz formula for calculating π

C++ (clang++) version 21.1. median time: 223.9ms
C# (SIMD) version 10.0.101. median time: 227.0ms
...
C# version 10.0.101. median time 1.01s
...
Python (CPython) version 3.14.2 median time: 86.32s

227 milliseconds for C# and 86 seconds for Python, good Lord. C# running on .NET10 and using SIMD accelerated types is, like, 380 time faster then Python. Using standard types, only about 86 times.
