No, my point is that comparing a single line of code is ridiculous. You can only get an understanding of the efficiency of a language when you look at many lines of code. I would think you would need a few thousand lines of code that did something non-trivial before the true picture emerges.
Not even when you come up with an answer will you be able to say something about a single line of code. Meaningful statements can only be made about lots of lines of code.

Except perhaps about vb. Screw that language.
