<p><img align="right" src="benchmark.png"> This was interesting for
me: it's some benchmark data collected over all versions of this
program starting from version 0.4 and up to the compiler in version
0.7. Most of the effort in tuning the program has paid off. The
compilation occasionally loses vs. interpretation in very short
programs or those that don't loop much (you can see this effect
in <code>dynamic</code> and <code>dderiv</code>. </p>
<p>Otherwise, in die-hard computational scenarios
like <code>ack</code> and <code>puzzle</code>, the compiler is seen at
its best.</p>
