I wrote a Nimrod benchmark to go along for this article and @logicchains was kind enough to include it.
As can be seen in the article we are the 3rd fastest and the 1st with the lowest SLOC. The results do seem to be very machine-sensitive, for me for example GCC was fastest for the Nimrod code and it also was pretty much the same as the LLVM compiled C++ code.
