20M digits of pi in 1 minute using Julia
When I googled digits of pi I found
http://www.numberworld.org/y-cruncher/
where they get 25M digits in about one second (rather than one minute) depending on what kind of computer you use.

y-cruncher is the state of the art but it is also not written in a language like julia, and doubtlessly occupies many more lines of code

Y-cruncher is closed source, there’s no way to know the number of lines of code it uses compared to Julia.

That is true, but isn’t it then more useful to provide an open source method of computation at these ranges?
