OFF-TOPIC, mode dream on
I'm drooling: OCaml has nearly the speed of raw C..

I wish that Ruby could be as fast as OCaml because I really can't stand
the syntax of OCaml.. (No, I don't want to start a flamewar this is just
my opinion, your mileage may vary of course).

I've read here about some common back-end for Perl/Python/Ruby, the
project Parrot I think.

Given that OCaml is one of the fastest interpreted language, I'm
wondering if some things could not be reused from this project for the
back-end at least..
