.NET competes with java-script

That's all we are expecting from programs written in the managed code; Though a MVP advised not to say that, because after JIT compilation the code runs in the native! Funny, isn't? That means scripting languages run in the Host code and never in the native? That means scripting languages are po...more >>

I can't ignore the speed of .NET managed applications in manipulating string, I/O and arithmetic operations. However, we can never compare the speed of a C/C++ program with its .NET counterpart when it comes to some heavy operations, like long loops, graphics, load time and many other issues. T...more >>
