Re: The Most Suitable Language To Build a Search Engine
+1 to what CptPicard said.
Additionally, I expect a great search engine to be written in multiple languages. You'll need to develop the web-based site, the crawlers, you need to do computations related to the search index and analysis, et cetera and you're not going to do that in one language (for performance and suitability reasons). A language that is fast may not be suitable to write a website in and vice versa.
