Subject: Re: [Caml-list] Correct way of programming a CGI script
Date: Tue, 09 Oct 2007 07:49:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1191908989.20593.6.camel@Blefuscu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1191884703.26491.9.camel@rosella.wigram>

Here, the obligatory reference to the Shootout:

The two string manipulation benchmarks are
http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=regexdna&lang=all
(Not quite as much string manipulation as Regexps, OCaml is among the
best here, but Python is about 2x faster -- I've tried improving it with
PCRE but the final result is not as fast as with Str)

http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=fasta&lang=all
(Not quite as much string manipulation as outputting strings, OCaml is
still among the best here, and Python is about 25x slower)

Fwiw.

Cheers,
 David
