  Is there any guidelines for how many lines of code would be too
long.  What if we had a minimal ray tracer of, say, 75 lines in
one of the high level languages?  What would be a good cutoff? 
Browsing around I noticed that the word frequency test for MLton
was 380 lines long.  And 150 wasn't unusual for some of the
others.
