I discussed this with Rinus Plasmeijer (chief designer of Clean) a
couple of years ago, and if I remember correctly, he said that the
native code generator in Clean was very good, and a significant
reason why Clean produces (relatively) fast executables. I think he
said that they had an assembly programming guru on their team.
(Apologies to Rinus if I am mis-remembering the conversation).
That guru would be John van Groningen...
If I understood correctly, and I think I did, John is now working on
a Haskell front end for the Clean compiler---which is actually quite
interesting in the light of the present discussion.
Cheers,
