Re: object oriented performance

This is a general issue higher than Perl. If you look at c and Java. c is much faster, although Java is getting faster over the years. But more and more people are now using Java, as it provides many benefits that c cannot. Just like other situations in life, there is taken and given you have to weigh.

Noooo not Java.. If someone is desperate enough to use object orientation to jump from C, then C++ would be a natural progression. Java and C, however, aren't really red apples and green apples.. ie the comparison between the two isn't really fair. Yes, C++ will slow down a wee bit, but going to Java is like going from flying aircraft to getting on a bicycle.. less chance of a major crash but much much slower..	[reply]
