Maybe i can help by stating that Perl and Python are among the largest resource hogs known in the world of languages. https://storage.googleapis.com/cdn.thenewstack.io/media/2018/05/3730357d-results-energy-time-and-memory-usage-screenshot-from-research-paper.png Image found on: https://thenewstack.io/which-programming-languages-use-the-least-electricity/ 1.00 is best, higher numbers indicate wastefulness. C has 1.00 for energy consumption and for processing time. For memory needs it's at rank 3 with 1.17. Perl has 79.58 for energy (rank 27 of 27), 65.79 for time (rank 25), 6.62 for memory (rank 23). Python has 71.90 for energy (rank 26), 71.90 for time (rank 26), 2.80 for memory (rank 12). Have a nice day :) Thomas
