Hi, I am pleased to announce Stringer, a library for fast string concatenation. Stringer is designed (with tradeoffs) to complement Clojure's string concat operations.
https://github.com/kumarshantanu/stringer Stringer's API contains several macros (so they can not be used as functions) - notably `strcat` and `strfmt` that are used frequently. `strcat` is the Java equivalent of string concatenation + operator. In Java, when you write ("foo" + 42 + "bar") the Java compiler generates in-line bytecode using java.lang.StringBuilder to concatenate the tokens. `strfmt` expects the format string (with limited specifier support) to be a literal and applies string interpolation to generate the formatted string much faster than `clojure.core/format`. The perf benchmark code is included in the repo. We have used Stringer in production for over 3 years at SAP Concur with only one issue noticed/fixed over 2 years ago. It is usually hard to troubleshoot and optimize the long tail of latency; however, using Stringer has led to overall perf improvements in several composite use cases.
