Hi Jim, I cannot reproduce your results. I see Clojure and Java with similar performance when they are both using java.lang.BigInteger. Clojure's arbitrary-precision integer defaults to clojure.lang.BigInt, which in my test is about 12% slower than java.lang.BigInteger.
See https://gist.github.com/stuartsierra/5914513 for my code and results. I did not use Criterium or Leiningen to run the benchmark. -S On Tue, Jul 2, 2013 at 2:05 PM, Jim - FooBar(); <jimpil1...@gmail.com>wrote: > I'm really sorry for coming back to this but even after everything we > learned I'm still not able to get performance equal to java in a simple > factorial benchmark. > -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
