[Asterisk-Dev] PERL vs C

Asterisk Prepaid application written in C is better than written in PERL.  

C is a programming language that gives us fastest execution. PERL slower than C, and regular queries are slower than stored procedures. 

Perl is a scripting/programming language which is more suitable for glue logic and applications that do not require to many resources, and need to be changed more often. But it is not suited for real-time applications, though the execution time for a program that does too many database queries will be comparable with C since most of the overhead will be spent doing the queries, we can accelerate it by using stored procedures and triggers.
