I have been hearing a lot of Clojure's use of an internalReduce protocol, which seems to speed up things when using reduce. Now the thing is that a lot of people also claim that tail-call-recursion is also pretty fast, which lets me wondering:
- if I could replace a loop/recur with an equivalent reduce/reduced approach, do I see performance gains? Obviously the immediate answer is just "benchmark it", but so far I haven't found an stable solution to this question. The benchmark seems to go sometimes for loop/recur and some others for reduce/reduced. I also know that when doing primitive math, loop/recur performs better than reduce/reduced, but I was wondering in which cases (regardless of idiomatic or nor) would a reduce approach be preferred over a loop/recur?
