I've written with such 'managed' code, I wonder about the performance, but that's just at startup I guess (dont' forget the .NET runtime is several MB large, and is not loaded into memory continuously on many platforms). I wrote a notepad like program in C#, it takes a minute or more to start up if it hasn't run recently (the runtime hangs around it seems for a bit).
Windows loads dlls as needed and keeps them in memory for a certain amount of time. This can be disabled in the registry or with one of these tuning programs. :) Bad news for those who have their Windows unload dlls on program exit, hehe.
