Hi,

can anybody share experience with OCaml on an Blue Gene ?

I may have the opportunity to use one here at EPFL, and I was wondering if somebody has already managed to compile OCaml on that IBM thingy.
I've been told everything is cross-compiled, so I don't expect too much trouble...
On the parallelization side, everything runs with MPI, so there too things should in principle go allright.
It should however require quite a bit of manual Makefile editing (they have highly customized C compilers), so I'd be glad to receive feedback on that.

thanks!

Guillaume.
