Ah, THAT one. Okay, agreed. Man... you almost gave me a heart attak when I read up to "C is about five times as slow as..." part. :) On the other hand, I'm starting to seriously doubt lately that developer time to implement should have any weight relative to ease of maintenance afterwards. But that is me - I don't do lots of prototyping, and trying to maintain, debug or optimize anything OO is not a particularly pleasant endeavor. My usual thinking goes like "why, oh why didn't you spend an extra month in development to write something that could be maintained later? Would this extra month kill your business? Of course not. But it would save you LOTS of money today".

I could really use it. My informal testing indicates that C is about five times as slow as a modern OO language. Of course, I'm talking about the only count that matters -- developer time to implement ;-) iang _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers Confidentiality notice: This message may contain confidential information.
