I would have expected the mult to be a performance hit, but my overly
simple tests show it performing better:
user=> (time (dotimes [i 1000000] (zero? (* 5 11))))
"Elapsed time: 183.358706 msecs"
user=> (time (dotimes [i 1000000] (or (< 5 0 11) (< 11 0 5))))
"Elapsed time: 682.586025 msecs"

In practice it doesn't seem to make much difference overall:
user=> (time (dotimes [i 1000000] (map #(mod2 % 3) (range -9 9)) ))
"Elapsed time: 966.868765 msecs"
user=> (time (dotimes [i 1000000] (map #(mod42 % 3) (range -9 9)) ))
"Elapsed time: 938.675334 msecs"

But the multiply seems to have the edge in both expression and speed.

Tim.
