Date: Thu, 08 Nov 2001 11:47:14 +0530 From: A Joseph Koshy Sender: owner-caml-list@pauillac.inria.fr Precedence: bulk I am trying to get O'Caml to run in an extremely resource constrained environment. To this end I am interested in getting the O'Caml program to run in as small a memory footprint as possible (GC induced latencies are not a problem). Today using OCaml 3.02 on FreeBSD 4.3, a simple hello world program like, >> print_endline "Hello World";; << translates to o 8554 bytes of interpreter bytecode, and, o 111945 bytes of executable code (using the -custom switch to "ocamlc") I would like to ask if anyone has considered Caml for embedded applications? Any suggestions as to where I should start looking?
