For the record, I worried later that rand was too inexpensive, and that those results were being driven only by the cost of setting up threads in pmap. This seems like a better test: (bench (def _ (doall (map #(nth (iterate rand %) 10000) (repeat 256 1))))) ; 185 milliseconds average time (bench (def _ (doall (pmap #(nth (iterate rand %) 10000) (repeat 256 1))))) ; 793 milliseconds average time I have been having success getting a speedup simply by changing certain map calls to pmap in my main project. I'm sure that many of us will be interested in a report whenever you get to it, but I can easily imagine that finding the time to summarize what you've learned is difficult. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
