I'm not an OCaml expert, but I'd say that benchmark is flawed -- OCaml is
supposed to give performance very similar to C++ and its very unlikely Scala
running on top of JVM to beat it.  The author did use -O3 on GCC, what options
for ocamlopt?

Perhaps I should bring on Jon Harrop to the rescue. :)
