For a decision to be taken shortly, I have compared your
loosers (and more of them) to SML-NJ, Ruby, and SNOBOL4.
Task: do lots of calculations with (alledgedly double prec.)
reals. Result (with optimization, where I know how to achieve it
with compiler switches, with and without range checking):
loosers other than Java: in the range of 10-15 time units,
ML: 45,
Java: 70,  (though default compiler options in VAJ 3.5/Win)
Scripting languages: aborted, since they were alread running
for a very long time doing only 10000 iterations, where the
others had run 1Mio times.

It would be interesting to learn whether or not OCaml or any other
of the more pleasing very high level languages are
significantly faster than SML-NL in this respect (since we have to
think about some real time/response time constraints).

Java seems to be adventurous anyway when it comes to fpt,
according to Kahan, so there...

(eAsk me for details if you are interested.)
