Hi, There are many performance benchmarks showing that compiled CLISP is almost as fast as C++ or Clojure as Java.
Being a dynamically typed language though, I wonder how it is possible. Is it because the compiler is able to sort out actually used types and assemble appropriate byte code or the cost of calling virtual methods is negligible. I probably should check out generated JVM byte code to see the answer firsthand but still would appreciate a higher level answer.
