v2 is in use by some VERY large providers and obviously the more features you enable the more processing power you need, but comparing 1 on 1, speed is similar. > I believe part of the agreement for Nigel taking over Policyd dev is > that there would be a port from Perl to C at some point when the code > stabilised. Nigel? Yep, to be honest I thought the speed would really suck using Perl, but in actual fact is not bad at all, which is why its not priority at this time. Any rewrite in C would be 100% backwards compatible with the Perl version, and more than likely both will be maintained side by side. -N
