Please re-read my comment :-) Nowhere did I say:
> execution speed does not matter
What I actually said: what is the actual performance requirement?
I don’t get why this is such a hard concept for people in this thread :-) Obviously you should use the right tool for the job! If you have extreme HPC requirements, no one (except maybe Jane Street) is going to use OCaml for that. It’s a high-level GC language! When you come into a thread, have some basic context about what it’s about.
