It really depends on the benchmark and the programmer, and sometimes on the computer. And on what a person chooses to report. Here are some benchmarks, probably only representative of very special cases, that show Java beating Clojure in many cases, Java and SBCL both beating each other in some cases, etc. (For my work, I have found SBCL to be a lot faster than CLISP, but again, it probably depends on what you're doing.)

(None of this conflicts with Mikera's insightful comments.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
