gollark: > 1. Performance penalties.> [some rambling about C++].NET is generally pretty much *fast enough*. If your application somehow hits performance bottlenecks, rewrite the slow bits in native code, don't just immediately take a development speed hit.> 2. Need to interoperate with C++ / Native (Windows) API’sI don't know how often you actually need to bind to a native API not wrapped by .NET or a third-party library, but you can do it, it's just annoying - but probably less than using C++ for everything!
