I've been a Perl hobbyist for six years, and always felt that I've been copy/pasting too much code. You've sent me down the path to achieve intermediateness. Thanks for this.

See <a href="http://graphcomp.com/pogl.cgi?v=0111s3B1&r=s3m3" rel="nofollow">POGL Benchmarks - C vs Perl</a>. POGL is an OpenGL library. Result: "No statistical difference in overall performance between C and Perl", "On Vista, Perl occasionally/often ran faster than C ". For explanations why, read the article.

I guess graphics library bindings can be written for Ruby too. But Ruby is slow, so I guess Perl is better for such games. Both languages really are not suitable for 3D games - C/C++ is the best language for this purpose.
