I've used hundreds of keywords in a hierarchy 2-4 layers deep; everything is fast. As Rich pointed out, inheritance hierarchies are expanded, so there's no tree walking. I would have no fear going up in the thousands. Do some experiments! :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
