When did you look - six months ago? a year ago? 3

ah, again this argument. two weeks ago Don said that ghc
changed a lot
in 2 years, now when we see that there is no difference, he
says that
those loop optimizer is somewhere noone know where. now i
should look
into new set of tests just because everyone else believe
that ghc is
shiny. please look yourself, i will continue to say about
testset i
have seen when 6.6 arrived
If you're going to continue talking about a testset you saw in 2006 then tell people you are talking about 2006.

most of these tests depends on libraries speed
Most?
2 of 12 strongly depend on libraries because PCRE and
GMP are explicitly allowed.
*were* depending on libs speed. in particular,
haskell's triumph -
multithreading tests, chameneos or so
Most? If you add those 2, that makes 4 out of 12 (4 out of 17 in the old data).

in one test, PHP is 1st
I don't believe that has ever been true - which
test?
large regexps one
PHP is not 1st in regex-dna.

PHP is not even 1st in regex-dna in the old data.

PHP is not even in the first 15 in regex-dna in the old data.
