@wycats Using a particular language is often seen as The Solution to performance. But the only real solution is caring about performance. -
@wycats you can do that in many languages with varying degrees of difficulty - depending on how your prog paradigms map to lang constructs. -
@wycats All else equal, a language impl can certainly perform better at certain tasks. But DOM is just a reminder that Not All Else Is Equal
