OCaml is not yet multicore ready. Also, overloaded operators aren't available, which can be a bit of a pain if you're writing numerical code. Otherwise it's a great language.

...and a terrible ecosystem. I recently mucked around with getting set up in Ubuntu Linux with F#, Haskell, Ocaml, and others. Ocaml to me was the worst in terms of user friendliness. I never got it working, so I'm working in Haskell. I hope some day somebody spits out a truly good docker image of Ocaml Batteries Included.
