Many of these are very stable, and would benefit from +being reimplemented in a faster language -- PL/SQL if particularly +simple or query-heavy, or PL/C if more complicated or data-processing +intensive. Your mission is to identify and address performance +bottlenecks. (This is an excellent opportunity to coordinate your +efforts with another student working on stress and regression +testing!)
