I have no problem with the speed of Perl, in general. What I do care about, is its rather large memory footprint.
For simple scripts of just a few lines of code, it matters that perl needs to load an executable of 1MB. Often, the load time is several times longer than the actual execution time. And that is something I just can't ignore.
