On a similar vein, I was bored and running through cydia packages on my ipod touch last night and Hugs98 was there.<br>Not sure how long it's been there or if everyone knew but me but I thought it was neat. No idea it had been compiled for arm. Wish I could get GHC or Hugs on my N900 now ):<br>

It is my understanding that GHC compiles to native object code and<br>
Hugs is a bytecode interpreter. This may account for the speed<br>
difference.<br>
