Same here--I can count on one hand the number of times I've wanted to implement polymorphism in three and a half years. Every time multimethods have worked great for the task. If you had polymorphism in a tight loop they might not suffice, but the decision to abandon multimethods should only be made after thorough benchmarking. -Phil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
