hi loic,

side note first: this is why i enjoy these tests, they push all of us to do
better :)

afaik, taken from the efficiency guide:

Data type     Memory size
List     1 word + 1 word per element + the size of each element
Binary     3..6 + data (can be shared)

so you've probably hit the spot.

it's some time now i'm thinking to add the 'binary' option in misultin, this
could be the perfect reason to do so.

couldn't agree more. erlang being packaged as stable in debian was the exact
same reason that brought my client to have it installed in her system in the
first place.
