(Notes: * I know that it’s possible to make SML/NJ produce a native binary, but I still haven’t taken the time to figure out how to do it. This time comes from adding a timing wrapper in the program itself and then importing it into the interactive environment. ** Alice ML has three JIT compiler settings; this was mode 1, which proved the fastest.) So SML/NJ is not far off OCaml; it’s clearly poss
