I've just read in the Stuart's book that multimethod dispatching on
something other than Java inheritance is rarely used. It seems to me
that there is a huge potential for their use in something that I do,
so I'd add "yet" to his words. Anyway, what I would ask someone from
the core team, or someone else that knows the internals is:
How fast the multimethods dispatch performs with large taxonomies
compared to Java inheritance or small taxonomies? For example, a 1000
or thousands elements in different taxonomies (or even a million?). Is
it designed to perform well in such cases?
