A comment on OCaml 5.0 Alpha Release. Parent comment

For nested parallel computations (think Scientific Programming, where one would use OpenMP, Rust Rayon, etc), we have domainslib [1]. Eio, a direct-style, effect-based IO library is pretty competitive against Rust Tokio [2]. The performance will only get better as we get closer to the 5.0 release.

Very impressive, thank you. I admit I'm not much of an early adopter -- hence my comment that I'll be waiting for the official 5.0 release.

I've scanned several articles (some made by you) and I very much like what I'm seeing.
