  Haskell: http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32/benchmark.php?test=pidigits&lang=ghc&id=3 http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32/benchmark.php?test=pid... (I am pretty sure GHC uses GMP for its core math routines, though.)

    > GHC uses GMP Exactly, so I don't understand in what sense we could say GHC is an example of languages that "do as well with their native numerical tower"? http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ReplacingGMPNotes http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ReplacingGMPNotes

      It is GMP, but the programmer doesn't know that. It is simply a good implementation choice (for speed, anyway), which is what the benchmark measures.
