Nah, the slowness is actually due to the typical Clojure program generating lots of ephemeral objects (because data structures are immutable), relying on the JVM's efficient garbage collection. The Dalvik VM is less mature and does not do this as well. It's only in Android 2.2 that they even have a JIT! But things should improve over time, nonetheless. -- Michel Alexandre Salim Clojure contributor: http://clojure.org/contributing GPG key ID: 78884778 µblog: http://identi.ca/hircus | Jabber: hir...@jabber.ccc.de http://twitter.com/hircus | IRC: hir...@irc.freenode.net () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
