I can understand the first one being "slow" but I'm a bit surprised about the loop being the slowest of the four options. Can someone shed some light on that? Nice to see the accumulating reduce being faster since that's how I've settled in to solving this kind of problem in our code, without really wondering about performance (it's "fast enough" and I think it's the more elegant solution). -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
