For an interpreter (you know what I mean), when I used Perl it was fast as hell. You'd need to go to Lua or Luajit to get a faster "interpreter". One of the first things I do when writing software is figure what the bottleneck is. If the bottleneck is the user's molassas slow 140 word per minute typing, I'll use an interpreter every time so I'm not the guy doing allocation and garbage collection and bounds checking.
