RE: speed of compiled Haskell code.

[Jan Brosius]

Ok,

So lazy Haskell (GHC 4.0...) is 10 times slower than a same program coded in
C  (let forget about Fortran).

imperative functional programs like OCaml (or MLTon (SML 97) are 2.5 times
slower than C , for any sort of program.

Haskell code optimised by strictnes annotions in functions or in
datastructures are ? times slower than C.

Please correct me where I am wrong and fill in the required number for the ?
sign above

Friendly
