Hi Andre, Many big sites including google, youtube, yahoo, facebook and sourceforge would disagree with you in that they attract massive traffic but use C++ only in components whilst relying on dynamic languages for workflow and to glue components together. YouTube was written largely in Python. FaceBook and SourceForge in PHP. I think its a different story with P2P applications or servers running on an embedded device. C++ is standard in these areas. Even with ultra high performance web apps chances are the most memory used is for caching and most processing is carried out around the database. Emir
