I also have many instances of implementing the same algorithm in OCAML and Clean. In most cases, Clean is faster than OCAML. You should not compare the result of optimizers written in OCAML with Clean. For instance, the FFTW program is an optimizer, that generates C. The result is fast, even if you use OCAML bytecode compiler, that is very slow, since the output of the program is an optimized and specialized C program. In anycase, you can compare a small program written in Clean and OCAML, say, an implementation of the Simplex algorithm. You will see that Clean is faster in most cases.
