OT: 'best' dynamic language

[Aleksandar Lazic]

Hi,

due the fact that here are a lot of peoples who care about fast and
light environments so I just ask ;-)

What do YOU think is the 'best (smallest/fastest/easiest)' language to
develop a dynamic website?

The requirements are:

MySQL requests (insert/update/delete)
Generate HTML-Files with templates => static files
Work with nginx ;-)
As small as possible mem and cpu usage => efficient interpreter

I have thought about the followings (no order):

perl
python
ruby
php
java
haxe (http://haxe.org/)
lua (http://www.lua.org/)
io (http://www.iolanguage.com/)
.
.
.

I know about

http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=all

but this page don't tell me how the language behave underload or when
there is a problem with the IO (network/disk/...)

Thank you for your opinions ;-)

Cheers

Aleks
