Just curious, but why is mono at .38 seconds and 10.00 seconds respectively?What in the .NET implementation makes recursive calls so fast?
Parrot function call and return sequence isn't really optimized yet. Currently I'm happy to be faster than fastest_of(perl, python, ruby). And don't forget that comparing with static languages (that can compile even function calls to machine code) isn't really fair.
