I've written a VM in OCaml built upon LLVM using LLVM's OCaml bindings:

There are at least two other significant users of LLVM's OCaml bindings, 
AFAIK.

Performance of the bindings? Fine.

My only gripe with LLVM's OCaml bindings is the way an error caught on the 
LLVM side causes my program to die in a way that the stack trace is 
unobtainable. So I resort to massively verbose debug logs. I'd much rather 
the bindings reraised errors as exceptions on the OCaml side.
