I have a large application now all in VS 2008 VB which has two functions - defining a process flowsheet visually then resolving the material balance of it. The resolving calculations on the process gets computationally intense and Im wondering whether rewriting those routines in C# would improve the performance over VB. The program uses classes rather than structs on everything to hopefully just be passing pointers rather than data. Historically, C or Pascal was always way faster than Basic. I also thought about going to C++ but the C# would seem to fit better with the VB classes I already have. Id also heard somewhere that VB and C# are moving to one language, so maybe theres no real difference in performance. Not having experience with C#, Im looking for comment on its speed versus VB. <br/> <br/>
