What is 'mnt pattern-matching'?

If you're asking about OCaml's pattern matching, it's compiled quite efficiently: https://www.cs.tufts.edu/comp/150FP/archive/luc-maranget/jun...

Apple autocorrects poorly. I meant “isn’t pattern-matching”. And I was asking about checking exhaustiveness at compile time specifically, not about the compiled code.

Unless you generate code with very large pattern matches it's an absolute non issue in practice :-)
