That depends on what you do, unsurprisingly. But usually it's huge. A factor of several hundred is not uncommon, but 10-100 is the normal range (in my limited experience, I almost always compile). > I am hoping to achieve at least 10x an equivalent C code. Then you should definitely *not* run interpreted code, but compile it. With compiled code, I usually have a factor of less than 10, mostly 2-4, sometimes even better. But some things take longer in Haskell. > So if a 10x10 matrix takes 1 second for C I want it to take 10seconds for > hugs. Execution speed is not one of hugs' strongest points, so I'd be surprised. I recommend you get a GHC. > > regards > fernan Cheers, Daniel _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
