Which is to say Koka takes 2x as much time as the fastest for that task ?

Huh, now I'm curious whether it means 2x or 1.5x. These graphs on the github look promising https://github.com/koka-lang/koka/blob/master/doc/bench-amd3...
That's pretty good considering Koka is a high-level language like Python and JavaScript.
