Geez, I don't want to fan the flames of any sort of war, but .... as
long as this subject came up, I'd really like to find out if anybody
has done decent-sized-system comparisons of ocaml and haskell for
performance and footprint.

I'm a long-time Caml (and before that SML) hacker, and (hopefully)
fully appreciate the FP Nature, so it's not like I'm looking for an
argument about which language is better, etc, etc.

And I'm not looking for microbenchmarks, either.  I'm looking for
-significant- systems that have been implemented in both, and
information about footprint and performance of those systems.

Why am I looking?  Because if you're a bigot about your favorite
language, and -never- look for countervailing facts about the
competition, you might miss out.

Heck, that's how I became an Ocaml bigot lo' these many years.

So .... anybody got anything?
