I like Gambas because it is very fast to write, and in most cases it's also fast enough to execute. But sometimes I need to do some parts of code with C++, because they are too CPU intensive to Gambas. But what to translate to C++? You can guess, or test with profiler and actually know. Sometimes C++ is even unnecessary when you really know where the bottleneck is. > If the program does intense computation, then it is a nonsense to use > interpreted > languages. You can do very complicated UI and data analyzer to that kind of program with Gambas. Just leave intense computation to C/C++. > So I ask again: what kind of program you write? I have many projects, with physics and math, different simulations, experimental game, etc. Non of them do networking or uses database at this moment. So, I don't know how much profiler can help you with them, but I guess in most cases very little.
