Has Anyone done a side by side comparison of load and run times.
I am looking for some sort of benchmark.
My roommate all the time tries to convince me to switch to CF and abandon the old perl, but I realize that perl has more flexablity and is robust for non-web applications.(plus has a large support base, shout out to perlmonks)
www.cfmtools.com

A couple of my friends say that CF is a bloated. I neither support nor deny this clam since I have little experience with CF.
Is short I would apperiate it if someone who is strong in both perl and CF knowledge comparies and contrasts the two in detail.
(ya I know compairing a markup language to a scripting program is like apples to hairy coding monkey)

Should I add CF to my language collection?
