yeah no one cares about speed anymore
I don't think java will consume all for instance i can't stand using forte (java built) as a java IDE as it's too slow.. but Jbuilder(C++ built) java IDE works nice and quick..
The same reasons which Java is a better School resource (reliablity being a main one) makes it a slower language than C++ as they both took oppsing paths on the hand off between error checking/ run time speed.
As mentioned CPU speeds are increasing but memory i/o aren't exactly going to par with moore's law... and the lack of explicit
dealocation of dynamicly stored variables as programs increase in complexity is a concern in my eyes.
just my experiance so far..
Morose.
