slow
And yet you like Perl?! ;-)
- jrockway 17y agoI do not like Perl for programs that need to execute quickly.
- gaius 17y agoAnd if your bottleneck is I/O?
- jrockway 17y agoIf the bottleneck is development time, I use Perl. It also works well in IO-bound apps. I don't want to say something like, "do you know who I am", but you maybe click the links in my profile before trying to convince me of Perl's merits :)
- gaius 17y agoI'm no great fan of Perl - yet in its niche, performance is not a reason not to use it.
