Perl, Python, Ruby, PHP, C, C++, Lua, tcl, javascript and Java comparison
http://raid6.com.au/~onlyjob/posts/arena/
This comparison consists of three parts:
Part 1: Speed.
Part 2: Memory usage.
Part 3: Language features.
Roberto Ierusalimschy, the the co-creator of "slowpoke" Lua, was not amused by the results...
I would like to hear Lutz's expert opinion on the test code methods.From: Roberto Ierusalimschy <roberto <at> inf.puc-rio.br>

This test is ridiculous. Whoever wrote the code does not know how
to program in Lua (or in Java or in Javascript).
