Hi,
Judging from your tone, i'd say your job is at stake.
In my experience, if your employer is someone who does not know
computer by heart - who does not program or does not know computer
architecture, you cannot win his/her decision by using the 'performance
stick'. These are the very people who you can always escape with the
aliby:
"if the program is too slow, upgrade the server to a P3-1000MHz
that will boost the performace to 3x... by next year, you can
purchase P3-2000MHz to tackle more hits, etc, etc, etc."
If he/she is such person, then i'd say, you cant use perl (or reason).
You have to learn PHP. =(
PHP is not as bad as you think. PHP is also good. but i'd prefer using
Perl as it gives me a lot more room to learn. I have tried PHP, its
fairly easy to learn coming from a Perl background; I joined a PHP
mailing list once and I was already POSTING ANSWERS instead of questions
the very same day!
Your case is not about Perl vs PHP. It is not about performance
issue or what strategy/reason to use to win his/her decision. He/she
is already sold to the PHP idea. Your case is about you learning PHP
to get the job. -end-of-story-
but if you ask me, i'll will use PERL!
ps. above are from my experience and my opinion and is not a
generalization than can be applied to all. your case may be
totally different.
