> "How much speed are you willing to sacrifice for a new feature?". My 2 cents:° That depends on the age and maintenance cycles of the module. Considering Moore's law a drop of 50% within a time span of 18 months should be ignored (i.e. Still faster cause only half of the hardware gain lost) Keep in mind that Ruby started to be popular with only half of Perl's speed! Many of us still follow requirements which are decades old... :)
