it is nice to know that e.g., Data.ByteString performs as good as C, but is would be even nicer to see that large, real-life apps can reach that same performance.
What about using darcs as a benchmark? I heard people say it's slow. The undercurrent is that it's slow because it's written in Haskell.
I have pondered about that. What would the input set be? And how to repeatedly run the benchmark? Should we just have a recording phase? Or a diff phase? It seems difficult to have a VC system as a benchmark. -- Andy
