Hi Ronnie,
I think the person you have talked to does not know anything about servlets.
speed is no more an advantage for C++, and server side JAVA is in most cases
is faster than C++ for busy sites unless you want to allow users to run huge
processing jobs like running a huge FEM model for advanced engineering
applications. Even for such applications, you can run the processing jobs on
a different server (which you can develop using whatever language you like
including JAVA/C++/FORTRAN) and use Servlets as internet interface and you
can glue servlets with data processing application using CORBA or RMI. And
free JAVA platform has everything to develop such an architecture.

Subject: What is the price using java servlets (speed ?)
"Everything has price-are you willing to pay"
I yesterday discussed with an american company, whi claims to be the ONLY
public internet company making profit. They have large set of C++ classes,
they operated globally, guy said java is too SLOW for them !
Could it be java servlets are suitable only for certain kind of apps ?
