Well isn't that a pain. I'll see if I can fix that. Felix is quite
fast in the micro benchmarks. Skaller, the main developer can speak
more about that, but he recently bought a sailboat and for some reason
is spending more time on it than on felix. We can actually generate
faster than g++ code, even though we compile down to c++ and use g++
as our backend :) I guess we just generate code thats easier to
optimize. Last I heard, though, our garbage collected stuff can be a
little slow. Does anyone know the status of it?
