Python 2 times slower than Perl

[Roman Suzi]

Purely on subject: 

it is great Python is ONLY 2 times slower than Perl.
In my experience, Perl in only 2 times slower than C.

This makes Python to be only 4 times slower than C. Not bad
for the _interpreter_.

Can you compare this with Java?

My guess is that you will only wait Java starting up
10 secs ;-)


Sincerely yours, Roman A.Suzi
