You've
obviously never written an interpreter have you.
I call serious BS on the statement "some
interpreters were faster than
some compilers". People are going to have to back that up with actual
examples before it becomes believable.
If you'd read what some of the previous
people have posted on this topic,
you'd get a clue. Instead, I'm left thinking you chose to ignore any input
that isn't what you want to hear.
