Even Tcl/Tk is faster. On the shootout Mono seems to be an order of magnitude faster in most tests.

I probably shouldn't be surprised that mono does not work on older unices, but I am a bit surprised python does not. --=20 Jan 'Bulb' Hudec --cWoXeonUoKmBZSoM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHTmLCRel1vVwhjGURAsdmAKDLX4IqrRLc+zHsAw6m0KtV7qyCIwCgxnXa BG5hdiwxqkyEichobvY1esk= =2+I2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --cWoXeonUoKmBZSoM--
