It's nice to see Nimrod making it pretty high up on the list of the fortunes benchmark. I still have not had the time to properly optimise my framework (Jester), or to even write code for the other tests, but I am currently working on a new async module which will be a lot more competitive (an experimental version of it already made it into the latest Nimrod release, see http://nimrod-lang.org/news.html). In any case it's nice to see that others are creating their own Nimrod frameworks to compete with mine (thanks idlewan :) ).
