I encountered poor performance the first time I did a HOL4 build under Poly/ML 
5.5, but now I’m almost certain that this must have been due to other processes 
that were running at the same time.

I’ve now built HOL4 using Poly/ML 5.5 a few times and on a couple of different 
machines. Scott Owens has also done a build as well. My conclusion is that, in 
the context of HOL4, version 5.5 offers a modest speedup over 5.4.1 (I’d say 
under 10% faster overall).
