This looks great! I used Julia in my Master's thesis and it was very fast and easy to use. One thing however was annoying: The lack of shared memory parallel computing. Unfortunately, in Julia, each parallel process has its own memory such that you have to keep multiple instances of your data and/or move data around all the time. This can be a deal breaker if working with very large data sets and actually is preventing me from using Julia even more. But I'm sure, it's on the right track.
