use python servers. I believe that they are getting bang for their buck.
As are google, yahoo, livejournal ... none of them use C. As some one
remarked,
I am ex-yahoo. So not true that 'none of them use C'. Most of the
foundation platforms we built on C.
I remember some time in the previous century yahoo! stated they were moving
from 'legacy C programming' to php (with a lot of reasons why they did not
choose perl) (since google had grabbed python, yahoo! could not consider
python without loss of face). I was a perl guy then and remember being highly
indignant that yahoo chose php over perl.
