how about answering the simple question.
it was the core of your alleged argument. IF you can make it fly, great. Otherwise, feel free to deal with what ever issue you think you need to deal with.
I proposed the question based upon your argument and the amusement from an interview in which I had a lot of fun with their 'perl guy' as we were playing around and got into those 'and how is this implemented in perl' stuff that had to deal with all of this interesting intellectualizing about perl at IT's code level, vice Perl the coding language, at which point I merely countered with the classical,
If run time efficiency is our issue, then why
exactly are we buying that overhead to have a run
time compile of the code vice a pre-built build of
the code optimized for the hardware specific OS and
it's implementation of that Machine Language?So Please. Carry On with your crusade...
