Dear all, In another thread, we realized that setting an array of primitive type (it was double in our example) is far quicker in Java than in Clojure.
After looking to the implementation of aset-* in Clojure 1.0, I realize that it calls the set* method of java.reflect.Array. Is there a way of avoiding that? Could the aset-* and aget family was not special forms implemented using their JVM bytecode counterparts. (dastore, in this example) Is it something impossible to do? Or not a good idea? Or to be done later? There have been some long threads about scientific programs in Clojure, and having array access to primitive types as fast as in java would be a good start to authorize cpu intensive programs to be written in clojure.
