Seems like you have plucked "probably less than 3x slower" out of thin air!

(And you need to say what you mean by "high-level languages" - Java?)

Strange that you compared OCaml to the slower Java -client instead of Java -server
[Java -server](http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4sandbox/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=ocaml&lang2=java)

Strange not to compare OCaml with other compiled languages rather than with interpreted languages like Python, Perl and Ruby.
