My suggestion is to use perl/php for fast prototype. And then use C/C++ to
replace the implementation to speed up the performance. perl or php is very
good for fast prototyping, but I am sure it is not scaleable to huge amount
of user. But since we just start to develop this. It is ok to start prototype
with it. And once we find out it is too slow because there are too many
users, we can choose to to switch to use C/C++ to speed up the performance.
A good Bible software should also offer map. Not sure how many people check
