This is actually a quick way to use multiple cores with ocaml. Find a
often called function that takes considerable time and offload it to C
Or HLVM, F#, Scala, Clojure or any of the other languages that permit shared

unless there are companies willing to sponsor/help the development.
But from my

Yes, of course. Companies modernise all the time. We have a client who just
started porting 1MLOC of C++ to F#. Flying Frog have ported hundreds of
thousands of lines of OCaml to F#. It happens all the time
