Maybe this is just a naive thought but I'd like to have the most terse/elegant/readable language and then have the most powerfully built compiler to take care of performance for me. Have you ever heard or seen the author of Psycho and PyPy Armin Rigo speak? Hi semi-serious dream is to get Python faster than C (in many cases). His is a compiler guru and plans to do this with all kinds of clever compiler work. That is the kind of thinking I like....no compromises.
