I understood "Your original example called eval in the body of the functions that you're benchmarking" as meaning I was running something like (quick-bench (eval `( (fn [y] ...) v) )) or (quick-bench ( (eval `(fn [y] ...)) v) ) But I'm actually calling eval before the benchmark and storing the output: (let [f (eval `(fn [y] ...))] (quick-bench (f v))) So the body that's being benchmarked is only the call to the dynamically generated function. Unless I'm totally misunderstanding how Clojure evaluates these things [wouldn't surprise me]. > I would really like to help you gain a greater understanding here, but I > must admit you are coming off as fairly confrontational, so I am hesitant > to continue this conversation. Good luck. > Sorry, that wasn't my intention. I kept repeating myself because I'm not sure if I'd be understood (since I'm new to Clojure and don't know the canonical words). Also, there are a lot of other discussions where people use eval in tight loops and wonder why it's so slow; that and the mention of a difference between AOT and eval performance made me think I should make it clear that I'm not wondering why eval is slow, but why it's product behaves differently. Using a benchmark to do so was way too indirect anyway, I believe my problem may have something to do with the failure of (eval `(str ~(Object.)))
