Sometimes, it's more important to use and know well consistent tools  
than it is to achieve optimal performance.  In an enterprise  
environment for example, I'd expect a simple contact form to use the  
same (possibly heavy) framework used for the rest of the system.

If we wanted maximum performance, this conversation would be happening  
on the assembler list :)


Kind regards,
James McGlinn
