    VB.NET vs. C#.NET

    This is probably an easy answer but I wanted to know why most controls/utilities
    for .NET are written in C#? I would assume that C# is more efficient/faster
    for graphics or ???

    Thanks for any views on this.

    Of the many reasons, one reason would definitely be that

    ///summary

    feature they have.

    The XML comments is a big one. I think operator overloading is another.

    But if they are both based on the same framework (or is it the CLR?) shouldn't
    they be similar performance?

    Don't they have similar performance? I think the performance is dependent upon the MSIL that is created, so there might be differences in the way in which the same thing in both languages are output. But common sense tells me that they should have the same performance.

    What made you say that anyways?

    As mendhak said, they will more or less stay the same, except some small oddities, but not much to say that one language is noticable (SP?) faster then the other.
