Julia gets a lot more benefit out of it because it's compiling type-specialized version of the function all the way down to machine code. So for example, a function that's being called with a `Vector{Int64}` ends up dealing with an array of unboxed ints, not going through dynamic dispatch on a generic array for every operation.
