a) Has anybody observed any **serious** performance degradation with PerlScript engine of AS?
I haven't worked with PerlScript in ASP for two years now, but never saw *any* performance problems when I did... well except for DB connections not closing, but that was my fault. b) Anybody observed any frequent crash problems with PS Engine of AS? Crash? Only when I did something stupid :) c) Should I foresee any problems in making this decision to move entirely to PerlScript, as against VBScript/Javascript? None that I can think of. ...I actually can't imagine why anyone would want to use VBScript or JScript in ASP (unless they didn't know Perl). To me both of those just seemed like fairly weak languages.

I am currently on Windows NT/2000, IIS 4/5 with ActivePerl. If, as we foresee, a situation in future that we should support our ASP application on Apache, I was planning to port the existing IIS-ASP application to Apache::ASP with minimal porting code. That brings up an important point: If I convert my entire code-base to PerlScript from VBScript and Javascript under IIS, I would be well off for a future port to Apache::ASP (http://www.apache-asp.org ). However, I am wondering about the robustness of PerlScript vis-a-vis, Microsoft's JavaScript/VBScript engines. Questions: a) Has anybody observed any **serious** performance degradation with PerlScript engine of AS? b) Anybody observed any frequent crash problems with PS Engine of AS? c) Should I foresee any problems in making this decision to move entirely to PerlScript, as against VBScript/Javascript?
