Hence, performance is not as good as it might be and compile times are longer. Also, the quality of code generated by <tt>gcc</tt> is important. By default, MLton calls <tt>gcc -O1</tt>. You can change this by calling MLton with <tt>-cc-opt -O2</tt>. </p> </li> <li class="gap"> <p> On the PowerPC64, the <a href="GnuMP">GnuMP</a> library supports multiple ABIs.
