Well, no, actually. There's a significant difference in runtime between the
same program written in Perl or C. Not really distinguishable to the naked eye
until you start scaling up, though.
if you don't need to run huge neural nets, or many recognitions per s

Neural nets in general, yes; Perl versions, no.
