So far it seems that vectors win in Clojure: (timings 3e5 (let [v (vector 1 2 3) a (nth v 0) b (nth v 1) c (nth v 2)] (+ a b c)) (let [lst (list 1 2 3) a (nth lst 0) b (nth lst 1) c (nth lst 2)] (+ a b c)))
=> 680.63 ms 83.6% 1.2x (let [v (vector 1 2 3) a (nth v 0) b (nth v 1) c (nth v 2)] (+ a b c)) 813.79 ms 100.0% 1.0x (let [lst (list 1 2 3) a (nth lst 0) b (nth lst 1) c (nth lst 2)] (+ a b c)) Frantisek On Jul 8, 7:29 pm, John Harrop <jharrop...@gmail.com> wrote: > Interesting.
