I feel I need to stand up for Java a little here. Java itself it not particularly slow. Lagginess in GUI applications is often more the fault of developers who don't understand threading and the Java AWT event-dispatch/repainting scheme, who block the GUI and create apps that appear slow or prone to freezes. Also, as Java is often used for enterprise / nework apps network latency might be interpreted by the user as performance problems, when really it's not. -----Original Message----- From: Svensson, B.A.T.

Aha, I see your point, the windows update/refresh speed. But that's a bottleneck most interpreted languages has. A GUI written in VB is terrible for instance. But I wasn't aware that Java generally was that "bad" to? Anyhow, I agree that it is indeed annoying with a slow editor, but my question was about what possible could be the point with a fast editor? In my opinion an editor just need to be sufficient fast, in other words "not slow". On Wed, 2003-11-05 at 12:29, Francesco wrote: > I meant: try an editor written in Java.
