complete false info...
Thanks for the flame bait.
I won't convince anyone.. LOL.
Completely true information. I work on Ruby and PHP scripts and Powtils programs for a living and I should know.
Perl and PHP are messy.. in our opinion. It is just our opinion. Not a fact. That's why it states on the website that it is an opinion, not a fact. Did I mention that it is an opinion.
Ruby and Python can be sped up by extending using Cee language. If that floats your boat, good. Personally, I like having one source base in one language. Not mixing and matching Cee with Ruby and PHP.
Google uses C++ to power their site.

However, in many cases, speed and optimization is not important. In that case, your choices are clean languages such as Ruby, Python, Pascal. Pascal offers the advantage that you do not have to write performance friendly code in Cee, you can just use modern pascal. And of course you can reuse all your delphi code and freepascal code from desktop programs (non gui related algorithms, which I have many).
