Hi! (I'm writing clojure-doc.org articles, so any help/corrections will help others too.)
Why is Clojure designed so that only vectors and `range` results are chunked (when you seq them), and not other things? Did someone profile Clojure programs, and these were the two hotspots? Or was it a matter of being conservative, and I/O is less likely in seqs based on vectors/ranges? Thanks, Tj PS: My assumptions (from grepping the code and reading Chas Emerick's explanation): * Only non-empty vectors & `range` calls become chunked when you call seq. (Aside from, of course, user-defined chunked sequences.) * Chunkiness is opt-in. Functions like map manually propagate chunking. Joy of Clojure's `seq1` turns off chunkiness because it enforces a seq based on lists. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
