The question itself doesn't bother me, nor anyone else that I can see.
What bothers people is the tone in which you present your views. But
I'll leave that alone, as enough people have commented on your
rudeness.
But since you clearly seem to feel that you're smarter than anyone else
in the room, please enlighten us with a few things:
1) What effort is involved in rewriting the code in C? Specifically
enumerate the difficulties involved in doing so. If you can't, then
you're not qualified to say "rewrite this in $MAGIC_LANGUAGE".
2) List specifically what technical issues would be addressed in
rewriting the application in another language and what new technical
issues would be introduced. And btw, "Reducing memory usage" is not a
technical issue - it's a symptom. Again, if you're not qualified to
discuss solutions in details, please don't be offended when people
think your solutions are useless.
Your diagnosis of the problem ("Process takes up too much memory") is
valid and is a good thing to bring up. But suggesting technical
solutions, when you don't understand the implications of them is at
best useless and at worst arrogant and rude to the developers of the
software.
