I mean is there such a huge difference and if so what are the causes for it and which language is the fastest?
Yes, there is speed difference. Programming langauges are like cars. There are Ferraris, Mustangs and then there are Minis. Each serve different purpose and are used differently. The difference is because of the way they are designed and built. Yes, you can replace one with another but using Ferrari sportscar for day to day activity hardly makes any sense. You are the best judge depending on what you want, how much do you have and how you want to use it.
I’m sorry, I couldn’t resist posting this. There are other answer which talk about compiled vs. interpreted; execution vs. build time; tiny programs vs. extremely complex programs; domain etc which might make more sense to you…
