Subject: Speed of different procedural language
Date: Sun, 18 Dec 2005 01:10:21 -0000
Message-ID: <do2cr4$sc5$1@news.hub.org> (raw)

I have a few small functions which I need to write.  They will be hopefully 
quick running but will happen on almost every delete, insert and update on 
my database (for audit purposes).

I know I should be writing these in C but that's a bit beyond me.  I was 
going to try PL/Python or PL/Perl or even PL/Ruby.  Has anyone any idea 
which language is fastest, or is the data access going to swamp the overhead 
of small functions?

Thanks,

Ben
