* Startup time: Is the time to start the "X" interpreter prohibitive?
(On my computer, "python -c pass", which starts the Python
interpreter and does nothing, takes about 24ms.) This overhead would
be incurred by every command that is not pure C.
FWIW, on Windows 7 running on a Core i7 1.6GHz quad core processor, a
cold run of "python -c pass" after a reboot results in 0.74 seconds.
The second run takes 0.13 seconds.
Because Lua was mentioned in another message of this thread, I'll
provide the following:
* A cold run of 'lua5.1 -e ""' takes 0.4 seconds. The second run takes
0.03 seconds.
* A cold run of LuaJIT takes the same.
