I assumed Standard ML was more like Haskell than it is. Going through OP's tour, I notice that it has enough features to actually be usable. It has primitives for concurrency and OS APIs.

It's even easier to use if you go with Poly/ML's pthread support. CML is relatively more complex and less supported from what I can tell.
