Okay, the .NET versus C/C++ conflict has continue to emerge in countless threads, and it seems that many .NET users still don't understand that there is a loss of performance and efficiency when using the framework. Because of that, I have finally decided to officially start benchmark testing for a .NET language and C or C++. As I want to end this discussion once and for all pertaining to performance and efficiency.
However, to get started I am going to need to the assistance of one of you .NET coders out there as I don't know any .NET languages. Preferably, I want someone who knows C# or C++.NET, but VB.NET, etc. etc. is also fine.
If you think that you can collaborate with me on this, post it here. And I'll give you my contact details.
Thanks.
I don't remember anyone claiming .NET was faster. I believe the debate emerged from you stating it is not efficient which is wrong or a misuse of the term. I am still interested in seeing the comparison. The question is, how do you intend on measuring efficiency?
I will port your code to C++.NET once you finsih and/or C# if no one else steps up. I will not do VB though. Also, to eliminate the OS variance you should code in Windows only.
Depending on your algorithm I would like to see other languages compared against it also. Should be interesting.

Dude, there were definitely people claiming that .NET wasn't that much slower. I can find the threads, example Chili.
Odd. We should take bets then.
Also, get on MSN so I can talk to you about the benchmarks I was thinking about using.
I am definitely interested to see how each language compares, however I have my bet on C/C++ without .NET.
I'll get on IM in a bit. I'm not currently at a computer with IM on it.
It may be interesting to compare C++/WinAPI to C++/other toolkits as well.
