If the language you are interpreting is quite declarative then piggy-backing
on OCaml's run-time either by writing an interpreter or by compiling to
OCaml code will be a big advantage. Writing a VM with a run-time as
efficient as OCaml's in this context is a *lot* of work compared to writing
an
Even staying at the interpreter stage, you can probably improve your
performance seriously by being careful about your implementation : use
efficient data structure (what is your implementation of variable
lookup?), avoid unnecessary allocation, use tail-recursive functions
where possible, etc.
