in reply to Perl is used 20-30% only

I think the world is using just 20-30% perl capacity.

And 20-30% of C capacity. And 20-30% of Python capacity. And 20-30% of Ruby capacity. And 20-30% of Java capacity. And 20-30% of COBOL capacity. And 20-30% of Pascal capacity. etc. etc

What Perl can do and what $foo can do often overlap. They can't both be used for everything.

I am Not able to search a good job on any Job-sites where any company is using Perl to great extent

http://jobs.perl.org/ - many many jobs in which Perl is not used solely for testing.

    Nah... COBOL's been going at about 350% capacity for years.

    (Actually, I'm totally confused over what "capacity" means in this whole context.)
