I love to see that it's 78% C code. :)

Not trying to be annoying, but it's sometimes fun/interesting[*] to see that C (which gets a lot of critique here) is still important in order to enable higher-level languages like here.

[*]: If, like me, you happen to like C, that is.

Edit: escape those lonely asterisks.

It could also be indicative how verbose C is. Given it is used in the C stubs, it does a lot of data conversion from/to OCaml values which increases the line count fast.
Snarkily, could it be that it takes 7x the amount of C to do what Ocaml can do?
They wrote the C so that you don't have to :)
