yeah but I'm dead scared of the stories I've heard about indeterminate execution time in certain cases. For my real-time production use case this would be a deal breaker. Am I misguided?

It's a risk - but then it's a risk in OCaml too. How real-time are we talking? I've seen Haskell used in videoconferencing and it performed very well.
