Hello people,
considering that

1) tail recursion is faster than non-tail-recursion (because it does
not have put a call in the stack for each iteration)

2) it is possible to convert any non-tail-recursive function into a
tail-recursive function

Is worth it to rewrite functions in tail-recursive ? Is Ocaml compiler
already converting my non-tail recursive functions into tail version,
when compiling?

Since this conversion can be made by a compiler, why bother to
rewrite ? Tail-recursive code can be harder to reason about.
