A quick glance at your benchmarking setup, it's not clear that you are benchmarking what you think you are benchmarking, and jsperf is not a suitable benchmarking harness (irrespective of it's popularity). Benchmarking is hard, benchmarking JavaScript is harder, and benchmarking JavaScript that went through Google Closure is even more challenging than that. It's for this reason we have our own simple benchmarking suite that we run in the project repo itself against 4 JavaScript engines (V8, JavaScriptCore, SpiderMonkey, Nashorn) at the command line.
For people that want to see accurate benchmarking information posted to some public location, this is a great place to get involved contributing to ClojureScript without needing to dig into the compiler. My earlier points about the general performance expectations of multimethods in ClojureScript still stands :) David On Mon, Apr 27, 2015 at 9:44 AM, Andy- <andre.r...@gmail.com> wrote: > Looks like they're pretty slow compared to a simple case: > > http://jsperf.com/cljs-multimethods > > https://github.com/rauhs/cljs-perf > > > On Saturday, April 25, 2015 at 10:33:18 AM UTC-4, Timur wrote: >> >> Hi everyone, >> >> There are situations where I want to dispatch functions using based on >> their certain properties.
