Re: Re: Re: OT: JavaJunkies (Javamonks sorta)

I know we're straying off topic here, but...

Java is more about the managability of large scale application development than speed. I don't think even Java biggots would argue with that.

You'd be really surprised how often I've heard relentless java-bigots say that it was several (three or four, ususally) orders of magnitude faster than perl at the same thing. No joke.

My only point is: never underestimate the power of people's pre-conceptions. Of course... I guess that's what I get for hanging out in the wrong places.

Unreal. To promote Java for it's performance gains is just plain wrong. Hell it takes longer to created the VM then any other languge takes to print hello world. coreolyn	[reply]
