  3. Apples and Oranges on High-level Languages and Speed · · Score: 1

    I can think of several general applications that could NOT or at least should NOT be developed in a truly high-level language like Java:

      - Real Time Client/Server programs
      - Gaming (intensive CPU/Graphics)
      - Servers that deal with large amount of data/connections/transactions

    *** Not to mention any application that should run for a long period of time and thus must not "trust" OS's memory management and the inherent cost of memory fragmentation.
