For computational work I'd say Chapel was just as productive as
any other language, probably better. This is though likely an

GPGPU support is not in Chapel as yet I believe, but then it
isn't in Python either.
What I mean is that Chapel doesn't have a lot of libraries (also
true for D, but things are getting better). If I'm going to do
some analysis, it usually takes much less time for me to do it in
R/Python/Matlab because they typically already have the libraries
that can do everything I need.
