I've always wondered why anybody uses something non-Java for Web
applications. Given that Java is faster than PHP, Python etc., this
also means that you need less computing power in your server farm.
On the long run, this should *always* be worth it financially,
unless Java is a nightmare to maintain, which I don't assume.
Granted, I use Python for our institute's internal Web application,
but I expect our traffic to be smaller than what one single
processor can handle.
Is it because the network and the database are the limiting factors?
But even then, the part of your server farm running the interpreters
could be reduced.
On the other hand, PHP is *highly* popular. So why is this?
Tschö,
Torsten.
