I think memoization in clojure(and other language like Haskell) at the language level is mainly used for speeding up algorithm, like the famous finbonacci number sequence in Haskell and not as a cache feature.
In other words, the memoization will disappear outside the function call. caching as in web application is a completely different thing which i would use whatever is needed for the application(memcache for example). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
