ok. I have a question that may bring the lurkers out.

I have a project that requires a significant amount of number crunching.
this will happen on Linux, Win9*/NT, and Mac. I need to know if there are

a) benchmarking programmes that can compare certain processes executed in
different languages
b) what arguments and (hopefully) impartial suggestions I might be able to
garner about the speed of number crunching in MacPerl vs Python (I have to
use a scripting language, and I assume that Applescript is out for this, as
is Tcl/Tk)
c) as this is a long-term project, if these are (*sigh*) any efforts being
made to make MacPerl multi-threaded, and if so, when one might be able to
expect any results.

best
