That's very odd. Rich needs to take a look at this. Letting a constant shouldn't have a performance hit, IMO. Could you test whether it's faster to use your complex data structure directly in the function, anonymously at the point of use, or to yank it from a global var? Code (can you

Interesting. It looks like Clojure's missing a few obvious optimizations, and is reconstructing the literal structure each time the function is called, or each time the value is used if the literal is directly at point of use. On the other hand, deref of a global is not exactly blindingly fast

Eeeuw. Was this with a Clojure literal in the let, or with a non-trivial calculation using constants? The only difference is literal map of maps in let form. Full code here: http://clojure.pastebin.com/m17b8d69 I have to install java one more time, when I try to start java - server, I get:
