    As far as I know, VB.NET beta 1 is not yet speed optimised, so a comparison would not make sense!
    From what I learned about the new VB, the language itself gets closer to C++, so it makes sense that VB.NET also speeds up a bit and gets closer to C++.

    by execution speed Do you mean the speed of compilation to Intermediate Language.....?
    because all langs compile to same IL and .NET's JIT will run those...so perhaps difference lies in compilation to IL.

    understatement of the year, the slowest program I've got

    I don't know with the C++ bit, but VB is both slower in design time and compilied, I guess MS have done this purposely so we want to buy the full "optimised" .NET when it comes out rather than staying with the Beta copy & getting the updates.
