hi all,

i'm new here as you can see,

i hesitated many times before drop my post,

well,

Where can I find some fair statistics, charts or whatever comparing the speed, stability, security, …. etc between :

php, perl, asp, cgi and jsp


thank you very much


:rolleyes:

CGI isn't a language itself. I'd guess that Perl would be the fastest of those. PHP is also quite quick. At the end of the day it really depends on what you are trying to do.

you are right,

cgi more like process environment,

actually, i'm doing somekinda research

:)

PHP - w/ optimizer very quick easy to program.

Perl - Very quick - bit harder to program.

ASP - well you can program in it but the cost of evertihing related to it will.........

JSP - Could also use C

Not true, JSP is java server page, and is NOT C.

Basically, if you want to decide which one to use, here is my advice,

-if you are using linux, use either perl or php. I personally have heard that php is a bit faster.

-if you are using windows and have ms databases, use asp, its easier.

-if you have a hybrid of platforms, or if your web application demands high stability, high security, high distributability, and high scalability, then use JSP/Servlet. However, if you inital demand is small, java could be an overhead.

Hope that helps, post any question,

Peter
