Let's be fair here. Numerical processing is not representative of most applications, but I concede the point. It's an interesting question though. I'm a Haskel

Let's be fair here. Numerical processing is not representative of most applications, but I concede the point. It's an interesting question though. I'm a Haskell beginner, but I'm pretty experienced with Scala. Let me try to see how using sliding compares with a tight Java loop on statically allocated data for convolutions/filters.
