The posting about BIM-Prolog being the fastest Prolog leads me to the following
question:

Does anyone have any feel how the speed of BIM-Prolog compare with some of the
other native code Prologs? I am specifically thinking of SICStus Prolog, which
I use (Sun3 and Sun4 native code [industrial version]), and ALS Prolog, which I
have not used. I am interested especially in comparisons between large
programs.
