Well, if you insist on living in a state of sin, at least expose the C/C++
code via CORBA, so you have a little platform independence - you can run the
servlet and C++ code on different platforms if need be, instead of porting
the native code to each new platform.
As for relative speeds, I think that misses the point somewhat. However, I
don't wish to pick that particular scab in this forum - that's what
slashdot.org is for :-)
