Not entirely true. We (said with official company hat on) have a VM written in C# running on mono that can execute over 400,000 heavy opcode operations a second, each of which is generally a pretty expensive operation, 75% of the time going to bdb via pinvoke for data. This is also most unoptimized C# code, in fact, its generally anti-optimized code. Performance is not as big of an issue as it might appear. --Todd _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
