I believe PHP and JSP are on par with regards to performance in terms of spewing out pages quickly. I'm sure there are counter-examples every which way for specific algorithms or specific functions on a very microscopic level where PHP or JSP clearly "wins" a performance race, but in general, they should be on par. I think JSP is a little more resource-intensive by nature, though it depends how much OOP you use in PHP (I use none). PHP will probably be easier to code, and more easily maintained, which is the real "win" in my book. YMMV. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
