Every other day, I change my mind, but I think I'll go with Java in the end. I may hate that decision later, but..well, so be it :) One day Sun or IBM will come up with some JIT or other tech that makes it all quicker...and in the meantime, if needed, I can buy some package that translates it into native code. > C, but A) applies there too. Although I'm really tempted to rewrite part > of the core in Perl 5.005-threaded and see how much slower it is. I know how you feel. Everytime I run java on Linux, I'm appalled at the speed, but the wintel/sun numbers are getting fast..so linux will too, eventually. Hopefully, we'll all have quad PX 1000's by then anyway... or K9 1000's...who knows :) > > Adam > -- > adam#princeton,edu > "There's a border to somewhere waiting, and a tank full of time." - J.
