Here's the numbers for a compile and run of the kit by both SML/NJ and
smlc. The smlc run was with no polyvariance and 2 rounds of flattening.
NJ compile time: 757.21
smlc compile time: 1203.57
gcc compile time: 2887.09
code size: 13,141,129
NJ run time: 136.18
resizable heap 100m heap
smlc run time: 96.00 91.74
There may be one problem with the run times because the benchmark is
the kit processing the basis library, which involves calling the C
compiler on their generated C code. I'm not sure how those gcc times
were charged. I'm looking into turning that part off for the real run
so that all of the time is spent in ML.
