Are there any specs for CAML bytecode?

Regards,
Dmitri

Not much.  There is an old technical report (1990!) that documents
the Caml Light virtual machine in some details:

        http://pauillac.inria.fr/~xleroy/publi/ZINC.ps.gz

The Objective Caml virtual machine is a second iteration of the Caml
Light VM, with some complications removed (e.g. one stack instead of
two).  However, there is no paper spec for it.

And is there any document that gives some description of the execution costs
of different ocaml constructs ?

Difficult to tell. Have a look at the FAQ:
