The word "fast" is relative, of course. I've been happily using Clojure's multimethods for a long time. They are certainly fast enough for a wide range of uses.
I've seen a couple instances where people used a couple levels of protocols (e.g., one function dispatching on the type of the first argument in turn calling something that dispatches on the second argument) in order to get some additional speed with multiple dispatch on type, but I haven't found the need to do that myself. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
