(so do i)

One of the main things I like about .NET is that I can call C++ libraries directly from C#. This means that when I get handed some C# GUI app that say does some signal processing and needs to be sped up I can just refactor the part that processes the signal bits and bytes in native C++ and get a 5x speedup! People think I'm doing some kind of magic.
I've read...somewhere... that Windows 7 is much improved over Vista merely because they ported some of the .NET middle layers to native code.

Performance always increases the closer the code is to the metal. .NET is a great application platform, as is Java, but system services on which system performance depend deserve the time and care that creation of a native binary can bring.

Yeah good points, although I'm surprised that they didn't review the code before chucking 7 more servers at it?
The only thing unpredictable about me is just how predictable I'm going to be.

I once rewrote a program that worked only for a special case but was in assembler into Pascal to make it work for the general case. The next guy along wrote it back into assembler, for a trivial but measurable speedup.
People who rewrite working code have too littel real work to do.
