The graph is sorted by performance, with the worst performing (not necessarily the most common) on the left. We've also done more profiling and optimisation since we took those measurements.

FXL employed some tricks that were sometimes beneficial, but often weren't - for example it memoized much more aggressively than we do in Haskell. Mostly that's a loss, but just occasionally it's a win. When a profile shows up one of these cases, we can squash it by fixing the original code.

What matters most is overall throughput for the typical workload, and we win comfortably there.
