I put an update in my original post, and I also (like you) timed without the side effects I'd inserted (empty-string print statements). Unlike your code, I'm using non-constant strings, which might explain the difference.
I note: The 1,000 string length comparisons take 0.184ms; the negative set test takes 0.281ms; and the positive takes 0.77ms. The string length check, then, is slightly faster, but if the length matches you still have the set test to perform. Probably not worth the complexity. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
