Hello. Just out of curiosity: 

I recall reading that one of your priorities for HLVM is
performance of numerical code. Does it mean that you expect numerical
code to run faster than natively compiled (with ocamlopt) Ocaml?
Do you have any experiments so far to support this?

I am doing large scale numerical calculations in Ocaml and performance
is always an issue for me.

Thank you for your effort.

Yours,

Jan
