All - I tried testing the code at http://clojure.org/Refs to see what the benefit of multicore processing would be. To my surprise, the my-pmap function took *more* time, not less, than the map function.
Whereas the times listed in the article were approximately 3.1 and 1.7 seconds, on my MacBookPro 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo laptop, my times were 14.9 and 15.1 seconds. What is the correct interpretation of these results? Does one need more than 2 CPU's to see a benefit? Or is the Mac JVM only using one CPU instead of two? Or...? ...and is there something wrong with my setup that both took so long? Thanks for any enlightenment. - Keith Bennett --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
