I think the big strength of Clojure is how easy it is to integrate Java code. If you have some performance-critical code you can always drop down to Java. Certainly, performance is important to Clojure, but I think the assumption is that it will never compete with pure Java on speed. -Stuart Sierra --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
