... C is so much less capable than OCaml that I'd begin by restricting the comparison to C++ with the STL. ... Why do you say that? ... No, ocamlopt optimises...
The users of Ocaml know it to be a very good compiler, producing well-optimized code. It's not quite in the class of the best C compilers, however, so you...
