Hello,

Sometimes, one wants to answer to an event by starting a (potentially long)
computation in the background.
But if the same event is received again, one may want to stop the
computation currently running in the background, and relaunch one in the
background with newest data.

Is this use case a job for the 'future function, or would you do that with
other clojure constructs ?

To make it more concrete, what I have in mind is something along the lines
of the Eclipse Jobs API, but done with clojure.

Thanks in advance for your ideas,
