Single-threaded perf in OCaml isn’t good enough as far as I’ve seen. Remember, we still only have 2 or 4 cores.
Disagree. Parallelism has been around for a long time. The reason is that it’s less effort to just rewrite one’s project in C++ than to parallelize OCaml. So it’s hard to find developers willing to do the work.

This is only due to design decisions made at the start of OCaml's life, rather than inherent issues with the OCaml model. Rewriting the runtime is a lot harder than you might think!

I wasn’t saying it’s impossible to parallelize OCaml!
