Well this is an extremely difficult decision that really has more to do 
with personal experience than anything else.  I assume this is for a GUI 
since you are talking about toolkits?  If so, Perl is easy to use and learn 
and port.  I am not really a Perl fan because of the performance hit and it 
sounds like that is important to you.  I know that python and tcl/tk are 
two popular toolkits.
